Pre-Performance Talk Speakers:<br />
David Ludwig and Roberto Díaz<br />
David Ludwig’s music has been performed internationally by<br />
leading musicians in some of the world’s most prestigious locations.<br />
His music has been described as “arresting, dramatically<br />
hued” (The New York Times), “supercharged with electrical<br />
energy and raw emotion” (Fanfare) and that it “promises to<br />
speak for the sorrows of this generation” (Philadelphia Inquirer).<br />
NPR Music listed him as one of the Top 100 Composers Under<br />
40 in the world in 2011. Commissions for prominent artists<br />
and ensembles include soloists Jonathan Biss and Jaime Laredo,<br />
ensembles like eighth blackbird and the PRISM quartet, and<br />
orchestras including the Philadelphia, Minnesota and National<br />
symphonies. He has held residencies with the Marlboro Music<br />
School, the Isabella Gardner Museum and the MacDowell and<br />
Yaddo artist colonies to name a few. Ludwig directs composition<br />
programs at the Atlantic and Lake Champlain festivals<br />
and is guest faculty at Yellow Barn. Born in Bucks County,<br />
Pennsylvania, he holds degrees from Oberlin, the Manhattan<br />
School of Music, Curtis and Juilliard, as well as a Ph.D. from<br />
the University of Pennsylvania. Ludwig is on the composition<br />
faculty of the Curtis Institute, where he serves as the artistic<br />
chair of performance studies and as the director of the Curtis<br />
20/21 Contemporary Music Ensemble.<br />
