Composer

patrick flannery

baltimore, United States

as a composer, i write and share notated music that is deeply queer, connected to others through collaboration, and inspired by art and those who create it. my practice is centered around explorations of each performer's (and their instrument's) unique characteristics, improvisation and intuitive creation, and unique storytelling focused on promoting under-heard or unspoken perspectives. my music is slow-moving and slow-uncovering, emerging from distant trains of thought and flickering into understanding.
