Conrad Dunn

Conrad started his musical career at age four as he sat on the front row at the concert of world-renowned violinist Zino Franciscotti; his little heart was touched forever.

Inspiration, determination, dedication and hard work carried him through a fascinating career of teaching and performing. Playing with groups, and performances too numerous to mention, have filled his life and dreams. Years playing with the Osmonds have been some of the special highlights along the way.

He has spent over 50 years in the field of education. His passion is sharing his knowledge with the youth and instilling a love for music in their lives. He has been teaching orchestra at the Thomas Edison Charter Schools in Cache Valley for the last thirteen years, and has been the conductor of our Northern Utah Youth Symphony for nine years.
