Frank Ticheli
Frank Ticheli's music has been described as being "optimistic and
thoughtful" (Los Angeles Times), "lean and muscular" (New
York Times), "brilliantly effective" (Miami Herald) and "powerful,
deeply felt crafted with impressive flair and an ear for striking instrumental
colors" (South Florida Sun-Sentinel). Ticheli (b. 1958) joined
the faculty of the University of Southern California's Thornton School
of Music in 1991, where he is Professor of Composition. From 1991
to 1998, Ticheli was Composer in Residence of the Pacific Symphony, and
he still enjoys a close working relationship with that orchestra and their
music director, Carl St. Clair.
Frank Ticheli's orchestral works have received considerable recognition
in the U.S. and Europe. Orchestral performances have come from the Philadelphia
Orchestra, Atlanta Symphony, Detroit Symphony, Dallas Symphony, American
Composers Orchestra, the radio orchestras of Stuttgart, Frankfurt, Saarbruecken,
and Austria, and the orchestras of Austin, Bridgeport, Charlotte, Colorado,
Haddonfield, Harrisburg, Hong Kong, Jacksonville, Lansing, Long Island,
Louisville, Lubbock, Memphis, Nashville, Omaha, Phoenix, Portland, Richmond,
San Antonio, San Jose, and others.
Ticheli is well known for his works for concert band, many of which
have become standards in the repertoire. In addition to composing, he has
appeared as guest conductor of his music at Carnegie Hall, at many American
universities and music festivals, and in cities throughout the world, including
Schladming, Austria, at the Mid-Europe Music Festival; London and Manchester,
England, with the Meadows Wind Ensemble; Singapore, with the Singapore
Armed Forces Central Band; and numerous cities in Japan, with the Bands
of America National Honor Band.
Awards for his music include the Charles Ives and the Goddard Lieberson
Awards, both from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, the Walter
Beeler Memorial Prize, and First Prize awards in the Texas Sesquicentennial
Orchestral Composition Competition, Britten-on-the-Bay Choral Composition
Contest, and Virginia CBDNA Symposium for New Band Music.
Frank Ticheli received his doctoral and masters degrees in composition
from The University of Michigan. His works are published by Manhattan Beach,
Helicon, Hinshaw, and Encore Music, and are recorded on the labels of Albany,
Clarion, Klavier, Koch International, and Mark Records.
