NonSeq: Huck Hodge

Huck Hodge is a composer of “harmonically fresh work”, “full of both sparkle and thunder” (New York Times). His music has been praised for its “immediate impact” (Chicago Tribune), its “clever, attractive, streamlined” qualities (NRC Handelsblad, Amsterdam) and its ability to “conjure up worlds of musical magic” with “power and charisma” (Gramophone Magazine, London). His musical collaborations include those with members of Ensemble Modern and the Berlin Philharmonic, the Seattle Symphony, the Orchestra of the League of Composers, the Aleph, ASKO/Schönberg, Dal Niente, Divertimento, SurPlus and Talea ensembles, the Daedalus, JACK, Mivos, and Pacifica string quartets, and numerous other ensembles.

His music has been performed at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center and at numerous major festivals throughout the world — the New York Philharmonic Biennial, Berliner Festspiele, Gaudeamus Muziekweek, Shanghai New Music Week, ISCM World Music Days, and many others. Recordings of his music appear on the New World and Albany record labels. Hodge is currently Professor and Chair of the Composition program at the University of Washington.
