An American Voice
Robert Nelson (composer), Moores School Symphony Orchestra, Charles Hausmann (conductor)
A brand new name to the catalog - wonderful music. Robert Nelson was born in Phoenix and studied at the University of Southern California with Ingolf Dahl and Halsey Stevens. He is currently a Professor of Music Theory and Composition at the University of Houston Moores School of Music. He has long been interested in theatrical music, as both a composer and coach/conductor. This meshes with a life-long interest in the widest range of musical idioms - from the most avant-garde contemporary effects to current jazz and popular styles. Writing for the theater has allowed him to explore all these various idioms and employ whichever were most appropriate to the project at hand. His theatrical experience has included a long involvement as composer for the extraordinary mime troupe of the University of Houston School of Theater.
