Composer at work

Stephen Anzaldi

John Adams, winner of the Michael Ludwig Nemmers Prize in Music Composition, recently completed his first of four residencies at Northwestern. He closed the visit with a Feb. 25 concert at Pick-Staiger Concert Hall. He also made classroom visits and consulted on a rehearsal by the Symphonic Wind Ensemble, conducted by Mallory Thompson and featuring pianists Ursula Oppens and Sylvia Wang.
