Super excited to announce that I’ve been selected for the Jazz Education Network’s 2022 Young Composer Showcase. My piece “Projectile Dysfunction” will be played during the 2022 Conference and I get to participate in mentoring sessions along with the other selected composers.
“Projectile Dysfunction” is a piece inspired by the helpless civilian in the midst of a super-powered fight. This piece is part of a collection of compositions inspired by comic book superheroes, characters, tropes, and archetypes. The first album of these compositions, Smash!, is due to be released in 2022.
Thank you, JEN for this opportunity! See you in Dallas! Congrats to everyone else selected!
