Hailed in the Milwaukee Sentinel for “hauntingly pure tone and perfect intonation,” Gail Lehto Zugger is highly regarded as a clarinetist and teacher. Dr. Zugger joined the faculty in 1999 and also teaches during summers at the International Music Camp near Dunseith, N.D. Dr. Zugger will present a clinic at the 2012 Midwest Clinic in Chicago, and has given clinics at regional and state MENC (now National Association of Music Educators) conferences in Ohio, Illinois, North Carolina, North Dakota, Pennsylvania and more.
Dr. Zugger has appeared as soloist with the Capital University/Bexley Community Orchestra, Westerville Community Band, Westerville Symphony Orchestra and Capital University Symphonic Winds, and performed in recital at the 2012 and 1998 International Clarinet Association ClarinetFest® conferences.

She can be heard in recording on Thomas Zugger’s Dances and Dreams: Recital Music for Trombone on the Mark Records label.
