Teresa Anstatt earned her Bachelor of Music degree in vocal performance from Wheaton College Conservatory of Music. Currently she studies with Dr. Thomas Houser of New Holland. As a professional musician and versatile performer she has been engaged as choral director, soloist, choister, opera chorus member, and private vocal and piano instructor.
Ms. Anstatt has performed for many years with Princeton Pro Musica in New Jersey, with whom she sang as soloist and professional chorister at Carnegie Hall, Princeton's Richardson Auditorium, and the Governor's mansion. This group afforded her opportunities to sing Bizet's Carmen and Rimsky-Korsakov's The Tsar's Bride in conjunction with the Opera Company of New York. Highlights of her solo work in 2004-2006 included performances of Haydn's Creation, The True Story of Cinderella by W. Martin, and Handel's Messiah. In 2006 she joined the Wednesday Club and has given several solo performances with them including those on the "One Step Off Broadway" program at the Hilton Harrisburg. In May 2007 she soloed with the Harrisburg Choral Society in Faure's Requiem. She was the featured guest artist in concert with the York Symphony Orchestra on their Independence Day celebration on July 4, 2007. In the fall of 2007 she sang the role of First Spirit in The Magic Flute when she made her debut with the Harrisburg Opera and was invited to perform again in May as Gretchen in The Student Prince. Her volunteer performances have extended beyond the communities in which she has lived from her first solos in Europe to her 2005 performance in an open air, televised performance in Romania.
As a recent transplant from Bucks County, PA, Ms. Anstatt lives with her husband and two children in Harrisburg, PA, where she maintains a private piano and voice studio.
