FSU Composition Residency

Florida State University composition faculty invited me to work with their student composers in a busy day of activities on April 18, 2024. I gave a composition masterclass where I provided critiques of works by four student composers, offering constructive feedback and insights. My visit also included a presentation of my own music to the students and faculty. The day culminated in a concert by FSU’s new music ensemble, Polymorphia, who performed my Split Screen for piano, keyboard, percussion, and drum set alongside eight student works. The residency served as a fruitful exchange of music and ideas, and will hopefully lead to sustained interaction between the UF and FSU composition areas.
