Carlos Foggin, Director

Having known the extraordinarily talented Mr. Foggin since his childhood, I have observed a meteoric trajectory in his professional life both as an artist and as a powerful community builder in the music world. He has amazed by deftly managing multi-layer pursuits: world-class organist; solo and brilliant collaborative pianist; conductor; orchestra conductor, creator and builder of the Rocky Mountain Symphony; and effective, passionate entrepreneur opening doors for multitudes of aspiring musicians and students, and as significantly, bringing beautiful music to thousands throughout Alberta.
