recipient of the 2024 Martinu Prize

The World Inside was written as a sort of culmination of my formal studies in composition, from my first piano pieces as a young child up to and including my studies at Mannes. The piece uses ideas I’ve developed over this long compositional journey, as a reflection of my growth and as gratitude to all who have helped guide me to pursue what I love.

The piece will be premiered by the Mannes Orchestra on Friday, February 28, 2025 at 7:30 pm. Tickets can be reserved for free here!
