Composition Seminar

Overview

  • Festival Young Artists have the unique opportunity to perform works written as part of the Alba Composition Seminar, which attracts talented composition students from around the world. 
  • "The composition program in Alba started in 2005, when composer David Froom began a composition masterclass in connection with St Mary's College of Maryland. In the years following, the size and scope of the masterclass evolved and a wide range of student composers attended these courses along with a diverse and distinguished group of guest composers and performers. Among past guest composers are Jeffrey Mumford, Scott Wheeler, Louis Karchin, Robert Gibson, Mark Andrew Cook, Judah Adashi, Sylvano Busotti, Christopher Muscat, and Antonello Lerda."
