VISITING ARTIST • TONY KADLECK, TRUMPET
Trumpeter Tony Kadleck to Perform Free Jazz Concert During Residency at the Michigan Performing Arts Camp (MiPAC)
NYC’s #1 Freelance Trumpeter has performed at Carnegie Hall, Radio City Music Hall, The White House; will Guest Conduct and teach Master Classes and Private Lessons at MiPAC
ADRIAN, MICHIGAN (May 20, 2016) – New York City-based trumpet player Tony Kadleck (The New York Pops Orchestra, Broadway, freelance performing artist) will join the new Michigan Performing Arts Camp (MiPAC) as part of the camp’s Visiting Artist Program on July 12–13, 2016. Mr. Kadleck’s website, with a complete listing of his massive credits, is at http://www.TonyKadleck.com.
“Tony Kadleck is arguably the number-one freelance trumpet player in the New York area,” said MiPAC President, Keisuke Hoashi. “We are thrilled that he will be joining us all the way from his current gig on Broadway, where he plays in the new hit musical, Tuck Everlasting.”
Kadleck’s residency at MiPAC will culminate with a jazz concert that will be free and open to the public on Wednesday, July 13, at 8pm in Dawson Auditorium at Adrian College. He will also provide MiPAC participants with free Master Classes (trumpet, composition, jazz, life as a professional musician), opportunities for private instruction, and will Guest Conduct Jazz Ensembles.
“It’s very likely you have heard his amazing trumpet playing many times without knowing it,” said Hoashi. “Tony has played on the Tony Awards broadcast for many years, has played for the last two Presidential Inaugurations, and most recently played with Stevie Wonder at The White House. You have heard him on countless Broadway and film soundtracks, not to mention all of his performances with seemingly every major recording artist, from Sinatra to Springsteen to Streisand to Sting.”
Kadleck’s resume includes the Broadway shows Beauty and the Beast, Spiderman: Turn Off the Dark, Shrek: the Musical, Aladdin, and Gypsy. He also recorded the Original Broadway Soundtracks for these and many other musicals, including The Producers, Honeymoon in Vegas, The Addams Family, Tarzan, and Little Shop of Horrors. His many film and TV soundtrack performances include The Wiz (on NBC), The Pink Panther 2, The CBS News, Chicago, and The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear.
Kadleck’s extensive performance credits span all musical styles and genres, and include live shows and album recordings with the world’s most popular and successful musicians, including legends like Barbara Streisand, Katy Perry, and Liza Minnelli; Sting, Bruce Springsteen, and Frank Sinatra; Michael Jackson, Harry Connick Jr., and Tony Bennett; Lady Gaga, Johnny Cash, and Audra McDonald.
The Michigan Performing Arts Camp (MiPAC) is a four-week summer music camp, holding its first season June 26 – July 23, 2016 at Adrian College in Adrian, MI. Young musicians ages 10-18 of all musical levels may attend 1, 2, 3, or all 4 weeks, as resident or day campers. MiPAC was founded by Hollywood actor Keisuke Hoashi and Adrian composer Timothy Martuch.

PRESS RELEASE: MiPAC to Grant Automatic Scholarship to ALL campers • May 19, 2016

ADRIAN, MICHIGAN –The Michigan Performing Arts Camp (MiPAC) announced today that all campers will automatically receive the Jesse R. Daeschlein Memorial Scholarship to attend the camp’s 2016 premiere season.
The JRD Memorial Scholarship grants $201 to each Resident Camper, reducing their MiPAC tuition to $999/week. It also grants $301 to each Day Camper, lowering their tuition to $499/week.
The scholarship will apply for all weeks enrolled, and will be awarded automatically to all campers this summer, including all those currently enrolled.
The scholarship was created in honor of the late Jesse Robert Daeschlein (b. 3/8/79), a veteran of the United States Marine Corps, and brother-in-law of MiPAC Artistic Director and co-founder, Timothy Martuch. Mr. Daeschlein passed away on April 16, 2016 after a year-long battle against a form of liver cancer. He was 37 years old.
Mrs. Stacy Daeschlein, Jesse’s wife of ten years and older sister to Mr. Martuch, released the following statement: “Jesse was my first deep love, though his first love was music. If there was anything he wanted to do with his life, it was to be a mentor or teacher to young individuals to help them find their life’s passion. I am proud to announce his dream will become a reality through the Jesse Robert Daeschlein Memorial Scholarship at MiPAC. I hope that his memory will touch and inspire MiPAC’s students as much as Jesse touched me, my brother Tim, and our whole family.”
The scholarship will give Mr. Martuch the chance to fulfill a promise. “Jesse and I met when I was just 10 years old, and I loved him as if he were my big brother,” said Martuch. “He was one of the most supportive, motivating, and influential people in my life. Last spring, Jesse asked me to teach him how to play guitar. I made him a promise that we would do it this summer of 2016. But then he got his diagnosis, and we just ran out of time.”
“We are extremely grateful to Jesse’s wife, Stacy Daeschlein, and to her entire family for making possible such a generous gift to every single one of our campers,” said MiPAC President Keisuke Hoashi. “It will be our great honor and privilege to dedicate our first season to Jesse’s memory.”
