about

Nathan Shirley has received one national and five international awards for his piano, chamber and orchestral compositions beginning at age 21, and has performed his music in Europe and the US. In adolescence Nathan Shirley discovered classical recordings and spent countless hours improvising at the piano. He is heavily self-taught, but as a teenager was mentored in composition by Olga Harris, the last student of Khachaturian. At 17 he received a composition scholarship, but abandoned the academic world, devoting himself to the study of classical composition as he envisioned it. Mr Shirley is currently accepting commissions for new music. Hear more at NathanShirley.org.
