Eric Lemmon

Composer Eric Lemmon’s music has been described as using “a broad range of extended techniques and complex rhythms to create [a] beautifully ethereal nebulousness of sound”.  His works have appeared in venues ranging from underground bars (le) Poisson Rouge and SubCulture to the DiMenna Center for Classical Music and FIGMENT arts festival on Governor’s Island. They have been reviewed by the New York Times and featured on WQXR’s Q2.  Eric has been awarded NYU’s Creative Collaboration Grant, MetLife’s Creative Connections Grant, a UMEZ Arts Engagement Grant, a Lower Manhattan Council Creative Engagement Grant, multiple Puffin Foundation Grants, a Tofte Lake Center Emerging Artist Residency, a Can Serrat International Artist Residency, a Mancini Fellowship, and ConEd’s Exploring the Metropolis Residency. Recent commissions include works for Jacqueline LeClaire and the International Double Reed Society, The Chelsea Symphony, and Listen Closely NYC. Eric is a PhD student in Music Composition at Stony Brook University, is the founder of composer’s collective Circles and Lines and the Artistic Personnel Manager of The Dream Unfinished.
