Died:

John Arrigo-Nelson is currently finishing his doctoral thesis composition, Quintet for Piano and Strings. His next work, for two pianists and two percussionists, is a commission from the New York City-based Yarn/Wire ensemble and will be premiered in 2008.

John Arrigo-Nelson’s music has been performed throughout the United States and in Europe and has been broadcast on WQSU Pennsylvania, and WOMR Massachusetts. In 2003, he appeared as featured guest composer on Kalvos & Damian’s New Music Bazaar on WGDR, Vermont. Arrigo-Nelson has been a MacDowell fellow, the recipient of Stony Brook University’s Ackerman Prize for outstanding graduate studies in music, and in 2004, his solo piano work Studies in Light received Honorable Mention in both the ASCAP Foundation Morton Gould Competition and the Brian Israel Competition. This year, composer Sheila Silver has nominated him for a Rome Prize Fellowship.

John’s music frequently employs the simultaneous use of conflicting tempi, and two of his works have been studied and included on composer John Greschak’s website dealing with polytemporal music (www.greschak.com). He attended the 40th International Summer Courses in New Music at Darmstadt where he studied with Olga Neuwirth and Isabel Mundry and participated in Salvatore Sciarrino’s master classes. John is currently a Ph.D. candidate in composition at Stony Brook University where his primary teachers have been Sheila Silver and Daria Semegen. He has served as adjunct faculty at Stony Brook University and Suffolk County Community College.
