Genre: why pin yourself down to one genre?

Introduction:
Patrick Valentino: composer of concert works, choral, vocal cycles, wind ensemble and chamber music, freelance conductor, music educator, playwright and author invites you...

Biography:
...hello all.
I am indeed Patrick Valentino, and it's wonderful to be here in cyberspace.

I am a composer/conductor, and aside from writing music, I have had the luck to travel the world studying, conducting, and premiering my works. Presently I'm living and working in Boston.

For a proper bio, and a heroic recounting of my life's exploits and escapades, please visit my website,

There you will also find a calendar of upcoming events, a list of my compositions, and an online music store where my music is available for purchase. Please visit!

Artist's Statement:
Ah, there's an artistic statement on my webpage, I suppose you'll have to travel there if you're truly wondering what's going on in the dark (and somewhat humid) recesses of my mind.

Recent Works:
V76 Moscow Symphony (#7 1/2) for chamber orchestra
V99 The River's Rain, for mezzo soprano and piano
V57 Avalon, commissioned by Bloomfield Youth Band
V94 Fourplay, for clarinet, violin, trumpet, and marimba
