Edward K. Mallett

Edward K. Mallett is a Big Rapids, Michigan native, recently returning to the area with his family as a home base for his musical activities. Dr. Mallett is recognized internationally as a performer on the tuba and euphonium, performing as soloist and chamber musician throughout North America in venues ranging from major concert halls to pre-school classrooms. Along with his solo career, he frequently performs throughout Michigan with his wife, Adriana, as TubaTales, a literacy and music program developed for elementary age students. Dr. Mallett is also recognized as the world's foremost authority on the double bell euphonium, presenting clinics and seminars on the instrument at a variety of international events. As a composer, Mallett has had his works performed throughout the world, with pieces ranging from intimate chamber works to full orchestral symphonic pieces. In 1998, Dr. Mallett wrote "Tanka and Haiky: August 1945", a multi-media work for soprano, flute and piano, featuring poetry, photography and artwork of survivors of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Mallett earned his undergraduate degree in music from Central Michigan University in 1992 and graduate degrees in music from Michigan State University in 1993 and 1996. Mallett taught for over ten years at college and universities in Michigan and North Carolina before returning to Michigan to pursue his performing and composing full time.

In 2006, Dr. Mallett started the Tuba Bach chamber music performance series in Big Rapids, Michigan, to provide the area community with performances by world renowned chamber musicians, free of charge.
