composer
Musical polymath Kyle Saulnier fuses the American musical vocabulary with modern orchestral techniques and industrial rock aesthetics. WNYC has described his music as “lush and inventive,” and DownBeat magazine referred to it as “a Great American Songbook of another order.” His compositions, arrangements, and orchestrations have been performed nationally and internationally by the Awakening Orchestra, the Metropole Orkest (as orchestrator), Jon Irabagon, the Westerlies, WeatherVest, the Osso String Quartet, the Vermont Symphony Orchestra, the Salina Symphony, Saturn People’s Sound Collective, TURNmusic, and the Champlain Philharmonic Orchestra. His professional work also includes scoring for National Geographic Television and orchestration for the independent feature film Nude Tuesday.
