Creviston is Clinical Associate Professor at Arizona State University where she is
Keyboard Area Coordinator, Director of Piano Pedagogy and the ASU Community Music School, and Coordinator for Class Piano. Frequent workshop topics include Music Learning Theory, teaching music to children with special needs, the importance of movement in teaching rhythm and music by composers killed in the Holocaust.
Her articles and compositions appear in Piano Pedagogy Forum, Clavier Companion, Music Play II, ECMMA’s Perspectives and others. Prior to
joining the ASU faculty in the fall of 2012, Creviston was on the faculty at the Crane School of Music, SUNY Potsdam.
An avid performer of contemporary music, Creviston has premiered many
compositions, both solo and collaborative. As a collaborative pianist, she has
performed in festivals and competitions around the world, and she performs
regularly in a duo with her husband, saxophonist Christopher Creviston. Together, they have recorded Snell Sessions and Columbia Sessions, both on the Albany Records label; Sunday Afternoon and Breaking available through CD Baby; and Phoenix Rising on the Blue Griffin label. Their recordings have been described as “engrossing” (Fanfare Magazine), “highly imaginative and expressive” (composer Denis Bédard), “a good blend of the standard and the new” (American Record Guide), and “sensitive, transparent, powerful music making that causes one to hold their breath often” (Donald Sinta). A new CD, reminiscences, will be available through Blue Griffin in Fall 2024.
