Tim Risher Tim Risher is an American composer. Risher received his B.A. in Music at the University of Central Florida and his M.M. in music composition from Florida State University . While living in Tallahassee, Florida , Risher was a member of the new music ensembles Paragaté and Tallahassee Camerata. Risher's output is typically tonal, with primary influences being minimal music , American and Brazilian popular musics, early music, and American shape note hymnody. Most works feature the use of conventional harmony, with great clarity of individual melodic lines. Risher's works transcend the superficiality of much popular music , however, in their frequent use of complex canonic and polyphonic structures and additive rhythms. Risher composes prolifically for ensembles ranging from concert band to Chinese traditional instrumental ensemble. He has also composed works for electronic media and incidental music for theatrical works. His most significant output, however, comprises works for brass instruments and for early instrument ensembles. Risher's works for early instruments have been commissioned by a number of major ensembles, including Palladian Ensemble, Baroque Northwest, Tintagel, and Trio Dolce. Although his works for early instruments are clearly composed from a twentieth century point of reference , Risher's writing for such instruments is surprisingly idiomatic, showing his great familiarity with early instruments and genres. Among Risher's favorite forms for such works are the ground bass and chaconne . His music has been released on the Index, PhonoStatic, and Discus record labels and his scores are published by . Risher lived in Hamburg , Germany between the years of 1995 and 2005, and now lives in North Carolina . He is a member of the electronic group "Paragaté", and has released a set of CDs on the Camerata label.Selected works 1978 - 3 Songs for tenor voice and guitar c. 1978 - Flute Sonata, flute and piano c. 1978 - Tantamount , flute and guitar 1981 - Stylized Dances , flute and guitar 1985 - First Grownde , double string orchestra 1985 - Way Beyond the Looking Glass , piano 1987 - Jerusalem , guitar and cello 1989 - My Way Is , baritone and cello 1990 - Broken Motet , baritone, oboe, English horn, and 2 bassoons 1990 - Private Music II , 2 pianos 1993 - Kleine Stücke und große Dinge , flute, oboe, clarinet, alto saxophone , piano, electric bass guitar , and drum set 1994 - Ein Stern fiel in meinen Schoß , wind septet 1995 - Elysian , sheng , 2 electric guitars, electric bass guitar , 2 pianos, and percussion 1996 - Over and Under , early music quartet 1997 - Music from Nowhere , dizi , sheng 1997-2018 - Sermon , solo voices, choir, and organ 2004-05 - Preludes and Postludes , solo piano 2005 - Southern Harmony , wind band 2006 - Exultation , double a cappella choir 2006 - Aviary Corridor , soprano voice, flute, string quartet , and piano.
