Dr. Ed Huckeby is an arts consultant and freelance composer, arranger, conductor and clinician. His career has also included roles in higher education and arts administration, most recently serving as President of Southwestern Christian University in Bethany, Oklahoma, until his retirement in 2014. Prior to his appointment at SCU, he was Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs and Professor of Music at Northeastern State University-Broken Arrow (OK). Huckeby also served as an arts administrator for Tulsa Ballet Theatre, Inc., and holds the title of Emeritus Professor of Music at Northwestern Oklahoma State University where he served for over two decades as Music Department Chairman and Dean of the Graduate School. He spent eight years teaching instrumental music in the public schools of Oklahoma, where his marching, concert and jazz bands won state and regional acclaim. This early success led him into the college teaching ranks where he became internationally recognized as an outstanding music educator and composer of over 250 published works for concert and marching band. Ed’s ability to write interesting and accessible instrumental music can be attributed to his experience at a variety of musical levels, including an eclectic performance background, having been a member of a symphony orchestra (horn), a jazz band (trumpet), and a contemporary Christian quintet (bass guitar, keyboards and vocals), as well as having served regularly as a church organist and pianist. His outstanding contributions to the concert and marching band literature have played an important role in the development of the contemporary band repertoire.

Ed holds a bachelor’s degree in music education from East Central University in Ada, Oklahoma, a master’s degree in music education from the University of Oklahoma, and a doctorate in administration from Oklahoma State University with additional study at the University of North Texas. He has written music education articles for The Instrumentalist, The American Music Teacher, and The Journal of the International Horn Society, and has held memberships in Music Educators National Conference, Oklahoma Music Educators Association, Oklahoma Bandmasters Association, ASCAP, Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia, and Phi Beta Mu, where he served as a member of the national board of directors and state chapter president. Huckeby was selected as an “Outstanding Young Man in America,” is listed in the “International Who’s Who in Music,” was inducted into the Oklahoma Bandmasters Association “Hall of Fame” in 1996 and was presented the 2024 Oklahoma Music Educators Association “President’s Award” for his outstanding career contributions to music education. He has created over 70 commissioned works and has served as a clinician, adjudicator and conductor for instrumental ensembles around the world, including Japan, Australia, Canada, Norway and across the United States.
