Andrew Earle Simpson is an acclaimed composer of opera,
silent film, orchestral, chamber, choral, dance, and vocal music based in
Washington, DC. His musical works make
multi-faceted, intimate connections with literature, visual art, and film, reflecting
his own interest in linking music with the wider world, an approach which he
calls “humanistic music.” Read Andrew’s bio here and check out his website www.andrewsimpson.com.
