Review for American Composers Orchestra Inc, New York, NY, USA
Bach's seminal affect on music was only possible with support from those who supported his vision. That's what we do for composers who have a vision for American music today. As Co-Chair of the Board and past Board member, we find the most innovative contemporary composers through a rigorous reading, jury selection, commissioning program all leading to hearing their music performed for the FIRST time in Carnegie Hall. All concerts have the composer on stage. We are talent scouts, patrons, orchestra operators, music lovers all in one.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
Attending the competitive readings submitted by composers where they hear their pieces performed for the FIRST time, commissioned the winner, and then heard the polished piece in Carnegie Hall. Thrilling.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
Expand its readings from one to three a year and expand the Carnegie Hall performances to announce the winners to the world. Livestream the concerts.
