Steven R. Gerber's music has gained international attention as a result
of two recent CD releases (on Chandos and KOCH) featuring several of his
major orchestral works, including the Symphony No. 1. Gerber has achieved
also great success in the United States and in his ten tours of the
former Soviet Union, perhaps becoming the most often-played living
American composer in that area. Of the Symphony No. 1, Evening Moscow
declares, "Gerber could serve as an example of American musical
professionalism ...he stands out with the highest of temperaments and
musical taste." Mr. Gerber has written for a number of fine soloists
including Yuri Bashmet for the viola concerto, Kurt Nikkanen for the
violin concerto and Carter Brey for the cello concerto. His work has
been performed by groups such as the Louisville Orchestra, Knoxville
Chamber Orchestra, the Fine Arts Quartet, the National Chamber Orchestra
and the Russian Philharmonic. Steven R. Gerber is the subject of a recent
Electronic Dialogue interview in Sequenza 21 web magazine. Read the
