Composer Feature: Caroline Shaw
This week, we’re spotlighting one of the fantastic composers on our program, Caroline Shaw!
Caroline Shaw is one of the most in-demand composers of our time. She has written works for prominent ensembles such as the LA Philharmonic, Seattle Symphony, and The Crossing. Her music also includes scores for television and film, with recent additions including A24’s film “The Sky is Everywhere” and FX/Hulu’s miniseries “Fleishman is in Trouble.”
An award winning composer, Shaw has received several Grammy awards, the 2013 Pulitzer Prize in Music, a Thomas J. Watson Fellowship, and even an honorary from Yale.
