Maurice Saylor

Washington, United States

Here is my standard concert program bio - still in the third person. :-) Maurice Saylor, who has been described in The Washington Post as “one of the more imaginative composers in town,” was born in Neptune, New Jersey, and graduated with a BM and MM in Music Composition from The Catholic University of America. His music has been performed by the Contemporary Music Forum, at the Bowling Green New Music & Art Festival, the Delius Festival, and throughout the United States, Central America, Europe and the Middle East, with broadcasts over commercial and Public Radio. Mr. Saylor has received grants from the Maryland State Arts Council and The American Composers Forum. He has received three awards from the Delius Composition Competition, and songs from his set Laudis Corona took both first prizes in song (Art Song and Sacred Song) at the 2005 Diana Barnhart American Song Conference. He was the featured composer for the 2006 Diana Barnhart American Song Forum. Other awards include the David Lloyd Kreeger
