So glad to announce that I will be the composer in residence with the Illinois Philharmonic during their 2019-2020 season.  What a fantastic group, led superbly by Maestro Stilian Kirov.  I really loved hearing the music of the other finalists Carlos Bandera and Allen Molineaux!  It should be a busy and fun year...  

Tidal Rhythms will be played on June 1 by the Orquesta de la Parque Conocimiento in Posadas, Argentina and on June 28 by the Orquesta de la UniNorte Universidad Festiva de Musica Contemporánea in Asuncion, Paraguay.  You can listen to the piece here (cue to 38:21):  

Michelle Vought premiered "Kavanaugh," a 6 minute song that uses the text from Kavanaugh's October, 2018 hearing, on March 6th and 7th at Illinois State University and Illinois Wesleyan University.  Looking forward to posting the audio of this dramatic, raucous piece!
