Uniquely focused on both the baroque and the brand new, Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra & Chorale (PBO) announces the appointment of TARIK O REGAN as the 40-year old organization s first-ever Composer-in-Residence.
In his three-and-a-half-year residency, O Regan will work closely with Music Director Richard Egarr, the Orchestra, Chorale, and staff, composing new works and establishing immersive relationships within the larger PBO community. This marks the first of two exciting and unprecedented PBO residencies this season.
One of the most played, commissioned, and recorded British-American composers of his generation, Tarik O Regan s prolific output reflects his love of Renaissance vocal writing (his choral works are especially renowned) and the music of North Africa (his family is from Morocco and Algeria). The Washington Post describes his music as exquisite and delicate, while The Philadelphia Inquirer says it evokes previously unheard sound worlds with astonishing effect. B
