MATT CURLEE creates music that reflects the connections between the natural world and the human psyche. As a composer of concert music, his recent work has focused on the interplay between the abstract spaces of fundamental physics and musical space. Recent commissions have included works for New Conductors’ Orchestra NYC, the Eastman Percussion Ensemble (EPE), 3D Percussion, RPS Collective, the US Air Force Band, and many other solo performers, ensembles, and collaborators of all kinds - visual artists, dancers, animators, scientists, and filmmakers. An EPE performance of Matt’s 2024 percussion sextet “Little One” was filmed by the award-winning Continuous Motion Productions and released as an EP that garnered over 80,000 streams in its first 4 months on Spotify. His music is frequently performed across North America, Asia, and Europe, and his work for TV/film has been featured on ABC, Hulu, Apple TV+, Disney Plus, and Prime Video.
Matt is also an associate professor of music theory at the Eastman School of Music, where he holds the Eisenhart Award for Excellence in Teaching. When not writing, performing or teaching, Matt prefers to be on the side of a mountain or deep in the woods, camera in hand.
