Episode 28: Christine Lamprea, TMI Class of 2007

Hailed a “firebrand” and noted for her “Supreme panache” as a cellist, Christine Lamprea, TMI Class of 2007, has travelled around the world performing in the U.S., Canada, and Europe, in such venues as Alice Tully Hall, the Beethovenhaus, the Kennedy Center, Carnegie Hall, and the Metropolitan Museum. She has performed as a soloist with the Detroit Symphony, Houston Symphony, and San Antonio Symphony, among others.

After graduating from TMI, Christine earned her Bachelor’s at The Juilliard School and then her Masters from the New England Conservatory of Music. In March of this year, she was honored as a Sphinx Medal of Excellence Winner and is currently serving as a faculty member at Texas Christian University as a Lecturer in Cello.

In this Episode, Christine shares her journey to becoming a cellist, her exploration of music, and how her experiences at TMI helped shape and prepare her for the future ahead. She gives advice to aspiring musicians and encourages everyone to support our local San Antonio Symphony, which played a major role in her development as a musician. Don’t be afraid of classical music, she said, just go, feel, and enjoy it.
