Following the success of his tone poem Titanic, Peter Boyer (Hartt MM '93, DMA '95) is fast becoming a Titan in the sea of American composers. He is one of only a handful of young American composers to attain his high level of success, as measured by performances of his symphonic works by notable orchestras, significant awards and commissions and high-profile critical acclaim. |
