My alma mater, Wabash College, has asked me to write a work for pianist Diane Norton and professor and cellist Kristen Strandberg for a performance on Feb. 21, 2014. This project came out of nowhere, but I can’t wait to work on it!
The Quintet of the Americas has commissioned me to write a work for their quintet for performances starting in June. I first met Barbara Oldham and the 5tet of the Americas at the 2012 Queens New Music Festival. They heard a piece of mine that they liked as much as I liked their performance at the festival, I guess. This will be my first woodwind quintet, so I’m looking forward to composing the work.
