Heralded as “A Composer to Watch” by the New York Times, Kenji Bunch has quickly emerged as one of the most prominent American composers of his generation, appealing to audiences and performers alike with a distinctive, vibrant voice in contemporary American music.

As one of only three composers selected nationwide to inaugurate the Meet the Composer “Magnum Opus” Project, Mr. Bunch wrote his “Symphony no. 1: Lichtenstein Triptych”, which was premiered to critical acclaim by the Bay area symphonies of Santa Rosa, Marin, and Oakland. His works have been performed by the New World, Colorado, Mobile, Missouri, Asia America and Honolulu Symphonies, as well as the acclaimed St. Paul Chamber Orchestra. He also has served as composer in residence with both the Bravo! Vail Valley Music Festival in Colorado, and the Spoleto USA Festival in Charleston, SC.
