COMPOSER IN RESIDENCE

Bowdoin International Music Festival


As Composer-in-Residence, Bermel works with composer participants in both group and individual settings. In addition to receiving mentorship, students attend lectures, workshops, and have time to compose. The program culminates in a performance of at least one work by each participant.

Each year I look forward to returning to Maine to work with devoted colleagues and young composers whose passion for music and commitment to excellence continues to propel the Festival to greater artistic heights.
