Ex Nihilo for Orchestra (2016)

Elliott Grabill is a composer and math teacher from Baltimore City.  He offers a unique perspective to the new music community, having “a lot to say, both musically and verbally,” according to Ron Beckett. 

Elliott Grabill’s music has been described as hauntingly beautiful, with flowery textures and bittersweet emotions.  His work has been performed by Pique Collective, Dark in the Song, the Washington Men’s Camerata, L'Abri Trio, the Meridian Arts Ensemble, and numerous solo artists, including Melissa Lander, Lynn Hileman, Peter Sheppard-Skaerved, Shawn Earle, Andrea Cheeseman, Hila Zamir, and Tae Ho Hwang.  Prizes include the Dark in the Song Prize, 3rd place in the Peabody Prix d’Ete, and an honorable mention in the Arcady Emerging Composer Competition.  He holds degrees from the Peabody Conservatory and the University of Virginia.  His film and dance collaborations have been featured at the Rosebud Film Festival, the Windup Space, the Athens Film Festival, Temple University, American University, and Dance Place.
