Of the many, many people named Alex Shapiro out there, I am most likely the only one who composes chamber and electroacoustic wind band music AND who used to breed pythons. Others may claim to have done one, but not both.

Music. Nature. Laughing. Eating well. Friendships. And lots of other fun stuff, too. In no particular order. Unlike the music I compose, the notes of which are definitely in a particular order.
