John Kosch is a composer and arranger currently working in Lincoln, Nebraska. His polystylistic compositions often use colorful sonorities, tuneful melodies, and visceral grooves to reflect on his experience with depression and anxiety and ponder timeless questions about human existence, purpose, and struggle. Kosch has received several honors for his compositions, including two Student Downbeat Awards, The Herb Alpert Young Jazz Composer Award, and first place in the NAfME Young Composers Competition. He has also been a finalist for the American Prize in composition in three different categories— orchestral music, choral music, and art song. His works have been selected for conference performances for the North American Saxophone Alliance (NASA), the International Double Reed Society (IDRS), National Association for Music Education (NAfME), Texas Music Educators Association (TMEA), Society of Composers, Inc. (SCI), and College Music Society (CMS), as well as the São Paulo Contemporary Composers Festival, Brevard Music Festival, Charlotte New Music Festival, and the Cortona Sessions for New Music. He currently teaches courses at Concordia University (NE) and Nebraska Wesleyan University. In the fall, he will join the faculty at Northern State University where he will teach courses in music theory, composition, technology, and piano. | |||
