Cincinnati, From Scratch: Fall 2024

Cincinnati, From Scratch is a cost-free creative music composition program. Over the course of two months, directors Hannah Christiansen and Joseph Bricker provide a series of group and individual workshops to introduce students to writing for their own and other instruments and ultimately commission them to write brand new works. At the end of the workshops, students oversee a professional recording of their work and introduce the live premiere of their pieces at a performance event. The Fall 2024 cohort included student composers from the Cincinnati Symphony Youth Orchestras and Nouveau Strings programs. Music composed by Nathan Barkley, Sophia Hamel, Gabriel Johnson, Julia Lancman, and Sam Waspe, and performed by Joe Bricker, percussion and Hannah Christiansen, violin. Recorded at Legacy Soundworks in Cincinnati, OH on November 26, 2024. Audio by Eric Sheppard. Video by Jay C. Smith and Danny Yanes.
