About the composer, Nathan Froebe:

The compositions of Nathan Froebe (b.1983) have earned recognition by such organizations as the North American Saxophone Alliance, the International Tuba-Euphonium Association, the National Flute Association, the International Trombone Festival, and the Society of Composers, Inc. He has written music for chorus, orchestra, wind band, chamber, and electronic mediums. Eclectic in style, Froebe writes with creative orchestration and programmatic narrative in many of his works. His works have been performed internationally and are a favorite among programs in the Midwest. Froebe’s music has recently been featured in Brazil at the São Paulo Contemporary Composers Festival, being presented at both the Praça das Artes Performing Arts Centre and the Conservatório de Tatuí. Froebe received his DMA in Composition from the University of Wisconsin-Madison Mead Witter School of Music and is currently a Visiting Assistant Professor of Music at Indiana University East where he teaches theory, composition, aural skills piano, band, and more. He holds memberships in CMS, ASCAP, Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia, and Kappa Kappa Psi (honorary), and he is a proud member and advocate of the LGBTQ+ community.
