(1998-1999) and has served as guest conductor with the Austin Symphony, San Antonio Symphony, Santa Fe Symphony, Chicago’s Music of the Baroque, Berkshire Choral Festival, Oregon Bach Festival, and Taipei Male Choir. Praised by audiences and critics, Johnson’s programs are hailed as thought-provoking musical journeys. A unique aspect of Johnson’s programming is his signature “collage” style: through-composed programs that marry music and poetry to blend sacred and secular, classical and contemporary, classical and popular styles. In 2006 he was engaged to create a special peace-themed collage program for the North Central ACDA convention. He was also engaged by the famed St. Olaf Choir to create and conduct a collage program during a five-week residency with the choir in spring 2007. A composer and arranger, Johnson works with G. Schirmer Publishing on the Craig Hella Johnson Choral Series, featuring specially selected composers as well as some of his original compositions and arrangements. His works are also published by Alliance Music Publications. Also an accomplished vocalist and pianist, he released his first solo CD “Thorns on the Rose” in 2008 on the Booker Music label. Johnson’s distinctive style and commitment to the choral art have led him to be honored with several awards, including 2008 induction into the Austin Arts Hall of Fame and the 2009 Louis Botto Award for Innovative Action and Entrepreneurial Zeal, given by Chorus America. Most recently he received the 2011 Citation of Merit from international professional music fraternity Mu Phi Epsilon, the organization’s highest honor for a non-member. A native of Minnesota, Johnson studied at St. Olaf College, the Juilliard School, and the University of Illinois and earned his doctorate at Yale University. As the recipient of a National Arts Fellowship, Johnson studied with Helmuth Rilling at the International Bach Academy in Stuttgart, Germany. 32
