Biography
Celebrated for her music's charm and wit, Celka Ojakangas (b. 1992) is an award-winning Los Angeles-based composer who is unafraid to compose music that is both accessible and "out of the box" through the incorporation of inventive musical elements. Her compositions have been performed and commissioned by many artists including USC Thornton’s Wind Ensemble, the Posthaste Reed Duo, and the Boston New Music Initiative. Celka is the winner of USC’s 2017 New Music for Wind Ensemble Contest, the honorable mention recipient of IAWM's 2018 Alex Shapiro prize, a semi-finalist for the American Prize's 2018 search for new music for wind band and a finalist for the Morton Gould Young Composer’s Award in the years 2016-2018. Celka is presently pursuing her doctorate at the University of Southern California, studying under Professor Ted Hearne.
