She went on to earn a bachelor of music degree at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where she studied with Douglas Hill, as well as a master of music degree from the College-Conservatory of Music at the University of Cincinnati, where she studied with Randy Gardner. She has participated in the Music Academy of the West and National Orchestral Institute summer festivals and has played with the Detroit Symphony, the Milwaukee Symphony, the New World Symphony, and several other regional orchestras and chamber groups. An enthusiastic chamber musician, she has played extensively in brass and woodwind quintets, and is currently a member of the Great Lakes Brass Quintet and the Ann Arbor Symphony Woodwind Quintet. Ms. Price Dietz is also busy as a horn instructor, teaching a studio of middle and high school students. She resides in Toledo with her husband, composer Christopher Dietz.
Pianist Robert Satterlee has a reputation as an accomplished and versatile solo recitalist and chamber musician. Recent engagements include appearances on the Dame Myra Hess Memorial Concerts in Chicago, San Francisco's Old First Concert Series, the Music Teachers National Association national conventions and the Quad Cities Mozart Festival. He has performed in Sweden, Holland and Kenya, and has been heard in radio broadcasts nationwide, most notably on Minnesota Public Radio. His new music activity includes a premier of a solo work by Frederic Rzewski, and his avid interest in chamber music has led him to collaborate with members of the Chicago, London, Philadelphia and Detroit Symphony Orchestras in chamber music performances. Satterlee teaches at the Interlochen Arts Camp in the summer. He holds degrees in piano from Yale University, Peabody Conservatory, and the University of Missouri-Kansas City Conservatory of Music.
