Composition at UD

Our Composers
At the University of Delaware we like to maintain a Composition Studio size of around 12 composers across all three degree programs. With a Department of Music student-body numbering around 350, this select number for the studio allows each composer the ability to maximize the number of performances of his/her compositions. In any given semester the number of performances of composition student works within the UD Department of Music averages between twenty and thirty.
