Faculty: Jere Knudtsen
Jere Knudtsen is the Music Department coordinator. Dr. Knudtsen teaches the second year theory sequence and lecture courses in rock, jazz and classical music, in addition to private instruction on the clarinet, saxophone and flute. He conducts two groups:
- Pierce College Concert Band, a student-community oriented group rare at the community college level
Dr. Knudtsen has remained active as a freelance musician in the Pacific Northwest for the past 30 years. The uniqueness of Dr. Knudtsen's musical activity is its variety: from classical recitals, to show gigs featuring international artists (too many to cite), to performances in a local rock group (The Great Pretenders), to occasional studio work.
