Pianist, (Solo and Collaborative) Piano teacher, Vocal Coach, Conductor, Festival Adjudicator, and Artistic Director of the Postmodern Camerata, Dr. Greg Caisley has worked throughout Western Canada playing, accompanying and recording with musicians and students for 30 years. He has worked in many aspects of music performance and education: coaching singers, working as a solo piano adjudicator, doing recital work, and most recently as a conductor of several instrumental and choir ensembles.
Coast reporter, Sunshine Coast, "The adjudication by Dr. Greg Caisley was extremely compelling. I admired his sense of humour, his concentrated musicianship, and the rapport he established with each one of the nervous performers. I thought the highlight would be the piano performances — little did I expect the style and substance of the adjudication to be the most memorable aspect! His style of constructive criticism was exemplary."
Areas of specialization include Piano (all levels), Choral, Strings, Chamber music, Church Music. I have adjudicated literally hundreds of local festivals over almost 30 years, as well as Provincial festivals in several provinces.
