This episode of Composer’s Voice features Alyssa Reit, a multifaceted
composer, arranger, performer, teacher, and storyteller!

Her main body of work has been creating theatrical-musical settings of
myths, classic stories, and fairy tales; her settings have been performed
at such venues as the Caramoor Center for the Arts, and NYU Steinhardt's
storytelling series, as well as a critically acclaimed tour at the
Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2005. Other highlights include several
commissions of H.C. Andersen fairy tale settings for the NY Scandinavian
Summer Music Festival (and a collaboration with flutist Sato Moughalian to
arrange and record traditional Armenian folk music (Oror).) Alyssa's
compositions and arrangements have been played at events sponsored by the
Philadelphia Orchestra, Carnegie Mellon University, and the Greenwich
Symphony, as well as at festivals all over the world, most recently at the
Encontro International de Cordas in Brazil and the Ottawa Chamberfest in
Canada.

Alyssa was on the faculty of Hunter College and the Pre-college division of
the Manhattan School of Music for over twenty years. She currently teaches
from her private studio in upper Westchester.

In 1998 Alyssa was honored as "New Yorker of the Week" for her work with
setting theatrical pieces for schoolchildren in the Woodlawn neighborhood
of the Bronx.

Call for Scores
Fifteen-Minutes-of-Fame featuring violinist Orest Smovzh

Vox Novus is calling for one-minute pieces composed for solo violin.

The theme to this Fifteen-Minutes-of-Fame is for anything relating to punk
music. For Orest Smovzh, the possibility of short works resonates with the
raw simplicity of earlier punk and no wave music (the late 70s early 80s),
also some later noise music (specifically Japanese of the 90s). He often
describes these pieces as works that "resist elaboration, compress
dramaturgy, or freeze in a brief moment". Orest also usually calls them
"condensed music"

Deadline for works is December 6th, 2024
