ROBERT CARL
Robert Carl's music reflects a fascination with sound, and it draws listeners
in through its unique timbres, orchestration, and juxtapositions. His music also
posseses an incredible sense of timing, proportion, harmonic progression, and
motivic development.
Carl studied at Yale, Penn, and the University of Chicago, working with teachers
such as Xenakis, Jolas, Shapey, Crumb, and Rochberg. His music has been performed
worldwide at venues such as Carnegie Recital Hall, Alice Tully Hall, IRCAM, and
Orchestra Hall in Chicago. He has received prizes and fellowships from the National
Endowment for the Arts, Tanglewood, NACUSA, the American Chamber Symphony, and
most recently, the American Academy of Arts and Letters, which awarded him a
Charles Ives Fellowship and a Copland Award.
Currently, Carl is chair of the composition department and director of the computer
music studio at the Hartt School
of Music. He also directs the Extension Works
new music ensemble and frequently writes on new music for Fanfare.
