I am Prudence McDaniel, a professional cellist who has enjoyed a successful career which includes more than 35 years of performing with national and regional orchestras, being the cellist of the award-winning Marian Anderson String Quartet, LLC for the last 18 years of the quartet’s 30 year history, and being a college instructor for 18 years, serving at Texas A&M University, Prairie View A&M, Blinn and Temple Colleges (TX) where I have taught cello, History of Chamber Music, Music Appreciation, and History of Rock and Roll. And, through it all, I am still a happy and successful private cello studio owner having served over 900 private students.
