An inexplicable affinity to polyphony drew Wendy Gillespie to the viola da gamba a very long time ago. After 32 years as faculty at the Jacobs School of Music, Indiana University, Bloomington, she graduated to Professor Emerita and resumed life on the road. Founder member of Fretwork and long-time member of Phantasm, Wendy’s name appears on more than 100 commercial recordings. She is Past President of the VdGSA and recipient of EMA’s Thomas Binkley Award.
