About
Randall West is a composer and sound artist whose catalog includes works for the concert hall as well as electroacoustic, vocal, and experimental music. He explores systems that ask performers to interact in novel ways with the music, with each other, and with their environments. Meanwhile, his music engages its audience with colorful timbres, striking melodies, and a vivid theatricality. His musical inspiration spans from 20th century modernism to the baroque, Indian classical, Japanese folk, electronic, avant-garde, and popular music.
