Scott Wollschleger
Scott Wollschleger (b. 1980) is a composer who grew up in Erie, Pennsylvania and now lives in Brooklyn, New York. His music has been highly praised for its arresting timbres and conceptual originality. His distinct musical language explores themes of art in dystopia, the conceptualization of silence, synesthesia, and creative repetition in form.
The following techniques were taken primarily from Wollschleger’s work Lost Anthems, for viola and piano. Lost Anthems was commissioned as part of The 20/19 Project by Anne Leilehua Lanzilotti with the generous support of Elizabeth and Justus Schlichting. Additional techniques demonstrated are from Wollschleger’s other works such as String Quartet No. 2 “White Wall” and Soft Aberration No. 2. Wollschleger is published by Schott Music. These videos were filmed by Kevin Eikenberg and Evan Chapman of Four/Ten Media at the University of Northern Colorado recording studio in August of 2018.
