Thomas Landschoot Thomas Landschoot joined the music faculty of Arizona State University in 2001 after having taught at the University of Michigan. Born in Belgium, Landschoot began studying the cello at the age of six with his father. He performs virtually the entire standard and contemporary repertoires of the cello, and several composers have dedicated new works to him. Mr. Landschoot regularly performs as soloist and in recital in concert halls across Europe, the United States and Japan. Mr. Landschoot holds a Master of Music degree from the Conservatory in Antwerp, Belgium, a Master of Music degree from the University of Michigan, an Artist Diploma from Indiana University and an Artist Diploma (cum laude) from the Conservatory of Maastricht, Netherlands. His major teachers include Erling Blondal Bengtsson, Antonio Meneses and Tsuyoshi Tsutsumi, for whom he served as a teaching assistant. He also enjoys a close relationship with Bernard Greenhouse, the distinguished former cellist of the Beaux Arts Trio. He joined the journalist and photographer Christopher Lambert in a concert that raised $350,000 to assist in building a hospital in Tamil Nadu, South India. In the summer of 2004, he and clarinetist Eddy Vanoosthuizen gave the world premiere performance of a double concert for clarinet and cello by Dirk Brosse and the European orchestra 'Prima La Musica'. One month later, they gave the American premiere with the Orchestra of the White House in Washington, D.C. He has performed for Belgium's Queen Fabiola and has been invited to perform at the Belgian Embassy in India when Prince Filip and Princess Mathilde are visiting. Recipient of the 2005 'Distinguished Teaching Award", he has given master classes at conservatories and universities throughout the United States, Europe and Japan. During the summers he has been on the faculty of the Music Academy of the West in Santa Barbara, the Texas Music Festival in Houston, the Meadowmount School of Music in New York and many others. Mr. Landschoot plays a cello made in Turin by J.F. Pressenda. The Fritts Pipe Organ is a thoroughly modern instrument that is strongly influenced by historic practice. Installed in 1992 by Fritts & Co., its mechanical (tracker) key action makes possible the most intimate contact between player and instrument. Except for a few hardware items, the Fritts is virtually hand crafted, representing some 13,000 hours of individual labor. Each of its 1,900 pipes was made in the Fritts shop in Tacoma, Washington, by casting the metal, forming sheets, hammering and cutting the metal, and finally forming the pipesthe same method employed many hundred of years ago. Judy Fritts, sister of the builder, Paul Fritts, executed the rich carvings, which so beautifully ornament the organ case. These were first carved in basswood, then enameled and finally gilded with 24 K gold leaf. The result is an organ case that closely resembles antique organs of northern Europe. The organ is housed in the Organ Hall, a room that was designed specifically for the Fritts pipe organ. Such details as the wood barrelvault ceiling, masonry walls, lack of sound-absorbent materials and the high, rectangular shape of the room are direct influences from the typical churches in which the old organs sounded. The Italian baroque Traeri Organ was constructed in 1742, and is on indefinite loan to ASU, having been installed in Organ Hall in May 2006. ASU is one of only four U.S. academic institutions, and the only campus in the southwest region, to house such a rare musical treasure. Before its arrival in Tempe, the Traeri organ made quite a fateful journey. The organ not only survived WWII, but was housed in a church that was bombed during the war. In 1950 before the church was razed, the organ was purchased by an Austrian, who kept it safe in his attic for the next 50 years. Despite all of the environmental challenges the organ has faced, it has survived nearly completely intact. Only one of its 300 pipes has been replaced.
