As a Fulbright scholar from 1953 to 1955, Wendelburg studied with Cesar Bresgen at the Mozarteum in Salzburg, and with Karl Schiske at the Academy of Music in Vienna.[3][4] She received her Ph.D. from Eastman School of Music in 1969,[5] where she held a research fellowship and studied with Wayne Barlow and Bernard Rogers.[6]
