Anne Lundy

In the 1990s, Lundy reinstituted the student orchestra at Texas Southern University after its absence since the 1970s. That orchestra joined a small group of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) that had student orchestras until it was discontinued in 2013.

While at the University of Houston, she formed the William Grant Still String Quartet, an African-American string quartet specializing in performing chamber music written by Black composers. Later in 1983 she formed the Scott Joplin Chamber Orchestra (SJCO), a community orchestra composed primarily of Black instrumentalists. The SJCO has performed throughout the greater Houston area, principally in black churches and community centers. It has also toured other cities the state of Texas. SJCO and the W. G. Still String Quartet are sponsored by the Community Music Center of Houston, where Lundy is also the Music Director.

Lundy was born in Houston, Texas. In 1977, she completed her Bachelor of Music Education from The University of Texas at Austin, where she had studied violin with Stephen Clapp (Clapp would later become the Juilliard School of Music's Dean). She completed her Master of Music in Orchestral Conducting from the University of Houston in 1979. Lundy received her Doctor of Musical Arts in Music Education from the University of Houston's Moores School of Music in 2015. She taught in Houston public schools for four years at Deady Jr. High and Milby High School.
