| Stephen Feigenbaum
Stephen Feigenbaum is a 22-year-old composer from Winchester, Massachusetts. His work draws on aspects of popular music, from the grittiest to the most lyrical.
In the summer of 2010, Stephen was the ASCAP Foundation Young Composer Fellow at the Bowdoin International Music Festival in Brunswick, Maine. He also is the 2010 winner of the Sacra/Profana (San Diego) choral composition contest. He is a past winner of an ASCAP Morton Gould Young Composer Award and of competitions sponsored by the New York Art Ensemble, the Left Coast Chamber Ensemble, the Palo Alto Chamber Orchestra, and the Albany Symphony Orchestra. He also received a fellowship for study at the Norfolk (Connecticut) Chamber Music Festival.
His compositions have been performed at Jordan Hall and the Hatch Shell in Boston, the Green Room in San Francisco, Lincoln Center and Le Poisson Rouge in New York, and in cities from Vancouver, to Berlin, to Prague. One of his works was performed by the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra, directed by Erich Kunzel, on a CD released by Telarc in 2009.
Stephen is a music major at Yale, where he conceived Sic Futuristic, a high-energy, multimedia show for new chamber music, including his own compositions. Stephen's composition work at Yale has been featured on the Yale College website. He has studied with Kathryn Alexander, Martin Bresnick, Michael Gandolfi, Martin Amlin, Rodney Lister, Samuel Adler, and Claude Baker. He will be continuing his studies at the Yale School of Music beginning in the fall.
