Kristopher Magnuson<\/strong> is a composer from Cleveland, OH. Recent works have seen (or are scheduled to see) performances at the AMOK Experimental Music Platform in York, UK; the Sound Thought<\/em> Festival in Glasgow, Scotland; the Canadian Music Centre in Toronto, Canada; and the SoundSCAPE<\/em> Festival in Maccagno, Italy.

His Palos<\/em> for string quartet, based on flamenco song forms, won first prize in the University of Toronto String Quartet Composition Competition, and received its world premiere with the Cecilia<\/em> Quartet at the 2015 University of Toronto New Music Festival. He received his DMA in composition from the University of Toronto in 2018, where he studied with Gary Kulesha<\/strong>. His dissertation, Gambier Mass<\/em>, was scored for winds, percussion, electric guitar & delay pedal, and men’s chorus.
