Praised for her “warmth and composure” (Wichita Eagle), Stephanie Corwin enjoys playing music of the past five centuries on modern and historical bassoons. Her vocation has taken her throughout the US and abroad, with solo performances at Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall and concerts with renowned ensembles, including the Handel and Haydn Society, Tafelmusik, Piffaro, and Apollo’s Fire. 

Stephanie is the inaugural winner of the Meg Quigley Vivaldi Bassoon Competition and has received prizes at the Fischoff, Coleman, and Yellow Springs chamber music competitions. After graduating from Davidson College, she earned her MM from Yale University and DMA from Stony Brook University, studying with Frank Morelli at both institutions. Intrigued by performance practice, she completed a Performer Diploma in historical bassoons at Indiana University with Michael McCraw. Stephanie has served on faculty at the University of Virginia, the Chamber Music Conference, Amherst Early Music Festival, and the Tafelmusik Baroque Summer Institute.
