Kristin Hevner Wyatt
Composer
Biography
Kristin Hevner-Wyatt '97 is a music composer itions have been performed nationally and internationally and span the musical genres of classical opera, electronic dance music, and atonal rock. She has also composed music for national commercials including GEICO and numerous independent films and her music has been performed in Carnegie Hall, Birdland and in conjunction with La Scala in Milan. As former Composer-in-residence the new NYC-based opera company, Metropolis Opera Project, Kristin penned four full-length contemporary operas that have been recently performed off-Broadway.
Kristin holds degrees from The Ester Boyer School of Music at Temple University, The Graduate Center of the City University of New York, and the School for Audio Engineering (SAE), NYC. In addition to her work as a composer, she also maintains a private instruction practice in NYC and Westchester County. She has also previously served on the board of directors for “The Look and Listen Festival,” an annual event dedicated to the performance of contemporary music in art galleries.
She writes that one of her fondest memories from Friends' Central: “...was having the challenge and the opportunity to compose a suite of piano pieces for my senior project. To be given the time and space to develop my creative vision at such a young age was a tremendous gift. I remember performing those pieces for an audience of my friends, classmates and teachers and feeling not only pride in what I had accomplished but a burgeoning sense of possibility - that I could share who I was through the language of music. It was a profound experience. Now, as a teacher myself, I understand how important receiving both emotional and intellectual support from faculty was for me in pursuing what I love to do and sharing it with others.”
