Martha Sullivan

Composer Martha Sullivan writes pieces that explore how music tells its stories. She is pursuing a PhD in Music Composition at Rutgers, exploring various genres, including music for dance, instrumental chamber music, electronic music, and music for theatre (she composed all the incidental music for Rutgers’ production of Cyrano de Bergerac in 2013), as well as the choral repertoire she is best known for. Sullivan’s first works for voice were composed during the seven years she sang with the Gregg Smith Singers, who have championed new choral work for over half a century. She now sings, composes, and conducts in C4: The Choral Composer/Conductor Collective. She has been commissioned to write choral music for groups around the country as well as in Tokyo and Zurich. Her most recent commissions have been for choir and chamber ensemble (for C4 and the Canite Quartet, and for Counterpoint [Vermont] and the Vermont Symphony Brass Quintet), and on a larger scale, for the Orange County Symphony, under conductor David Rentz. Her works have been recorded by the Esoterics (Seattle, WA), Chicago A Cappella, and C4. She is published by G. Schirmer, Laurendale, and See A Dot. She has achieved national recognition as a winner of competitions sponsored by both the Dale Warland Singers and the Sorel Organization.
