Composing in the Wilderness - 2015

PARTICIPANTS:

“Composing in the Wilderness simultaneously developed my self-confidence and humility. I learned what I was capable of achieving creatively and physically while Alaska and an introduction to some of the most brilliant and creative people I’ve ever met, reminded me of my place in this very big world in which we live. It was also just plain fun!”
— Jeanette Wong (San Francisco, California, USA)

PERFORMERS, GUIDES, VISITORS, AND COMPANIONS:

“For me, participating in Composing in the Wilderness was life changing. As a full time film and TV composer it’s often difficult to dig deeper into concert music and having the time in Denali followed by intense composing time made me re-examine my process and sensibility altogether. I had always wanted to visit Alaska and this couldn’t have been a more amazing experience.”
— Cody Westheimer (Los Angeles, California, USA)
