CHRIS ARRELL (*1970, Stumptown) writes music for voices, instruments, and electronics. Praised for their unconventional beauty by the Boston Music Intelligencer and hailed as ”sensuous” and ”highly nuanced” by the Atlanta Journal Constitution, Arrell’s compositions explore counterpoints of process woven from the interplay of color, line, harmony, and pulse. Arrell has fulfilled commissions for a number of prestigious ensembles and institutions including Boston Musica Viva, Music at the Anthology, Spivey Hall, Cornell University, and the Fromm Foundation of Harvard University. Additional recognition for Arrell’s music includes awards from the Ossia International Music Competition, the League of Composers/International Society for Contemporary Music, the Salvatore Martirano Memorial Composition Competition, Cornell University, the Cape Fear New Music Festival, the Society of Composers, and ASCAP.
