I love just about every style of music there is; however, I hope to make a career in composing film scores. I play the piano, violin, viola, and sing.
 

If you like my music please feel free to follow me on Twitter, like my Facebook page, and subscribe to my YouTube channel or even just message me and get to know me! Above all, if you like what you hear - share it! Thanks everyone - I hope you enjoy!

Jay is a composer who has Done Things and Been Performed Places. His catalog ranges from traditional ensembles such as natural horn + live electronics, 4-hand organ duo, and countertenor + alto sax, to the unusual and idiosyncratic ensembles of voice + piano, unaccompanied bassoon, and choir. His works have been performed on all habitable planets in the known universe.

As a collaborator, Jay has created music with numerous choreographers, visual artists, and poets. His interdisciplinary work with Team Hyena Puppet has led to the production of several science-based dance pieces, a journal article, a book chapter, several conference presentations, and a feature in Forbes. It is through this work that Jay claims to know more about hyena mating behaviors than any other musician on the planet.

Currently, Jay rambles about music and various tangents (comic books, science fiction, hyena mating behaviors, etc.) at Central Michigan University. He has degrees from Serious Places but that was a long time ago. Right now Jay is completing his first full-length opera (his first opera was pretty short) and trying to get better at chess. Actually right now Jay is writing this biography but you get the idea.

I am a composer and audio engineer based in Missouri. This is the official destination for recordings of my pieces. Please visit www.FrankNawrot.com for information on purchasing scores for performance or study.
