make living, breathing music

collaboration opportunities

Canopy Composers’ Studio frequently teams up with active performers and ensembles to provide our composers with opportunities for their works to be performed, documented, and shared. These opportunities provide our Canopy Composers with the experience of collaborating in a safe environment before they seek out facilitating collaborations themselves.

We also encourage performers and ensembles interested in working with our students to reach out to us directly about collaborating with Canopy Composers’ Studio.

your music deserves to be heard.

At Canopy Composers’ Studio, we believe in writing music designed to be experienced. We don’t believe in composition assignments to teach individual skills that will be shelved and forgotten the moment they’re completed. Everything you make with us will be a complete work that can be presented or performed.

While we offer a laboratory for you to experiment with making your music, we believe in creating opportunities for you to experience your experiments.
