Dr. Timothy J. Campbell is Associate Professor of Music at the University of South Dakota, where he conducts the Symphonic Choir and Collegium Musicum and teaches choral literature, conducting, and sight-singing. He also serves as Chorus Director of the South Dakota Symphony Orchestra, hailed by The New Yorker’s Alex Ross as “one of America’s boldest orchestras,” and is Founder and Artistic Director of Transept, winner of The American Prize in Choral Performance.

He has appeared at Carnegie Hall and Avery Fisher Hall and toured Germany and Spain with The Rose Ensemble, recipient of first prize at the Tolosa International Choral Competition.
