Jessie Montgomery: The Busiest Classical Music Composer In America. On Staccato.

from The Second Street Dreams Audio Network · host Judlyne Lilly

The New York Times called composer Jessie Montgomery the “future of classical music”. She was gobsmacked by that, even though orchestras all over the country are clamoring to play her works. The Austin Symphony will perform one of her pieces in November. In addition she’s on a three year assignment with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra as their Mead Composer in Residence. This makes her one of the busiest classical composers in America.
