| Composer of the Month March 2024: Gilbert Galindo | |
 Award-winning composer Gilbert Galindo writes “richly rendered music” (Thought Catalogue) of “undeniable power” (The Kansas City Star) with an intriguing palette of colors. A Tejano upbringing in west Texas combines with a love of modes, blues, and jazz to inform Galindo’s rhapsodic abstract lyricism. Galindo’s experience in New York’s electronic music scene as a DJ and producer also adds a unique level of kinetic and kaleidoscopic depth to his writing. Festivals and series that have featured his music include American Composers Alliance, Concept Lab, Cortona Sessions for New Music, Etchings Festival, Queens New Music Festival, Festival of New American Music, Make Music New York, and Tokyo to New York. Commissions include new works for: the Queer Urban Orchestra, in celebration of Pride 2021, New York City, NY; Sound of Silent Film Festival by Access Contemporary Music; Quintet of the Americas; the Chicago Fine Arts Society; and the Chicago Composers Orchestra. Currently the Executive and Curatorial Director of NYsoundCircuit, Galindo was a former Artistic Director of Random Access Music and the Queens New Music Festival. Holding degrees from Northwestern University (BM) and the Cleveland Institute of Music (MM), Galindo’s music is available from American Composers Alliance (BMI) and Galindo Musix (BMI) and can be heard on Neuma Records.
