Adam Silverman
Adam Benjamin Silverman (born in 1973, Atlanta, GA) is a composer of contemporary classical music. His works include the opera ''Korczak's Orphans'' (to a libretto by Susan Gubernat, based on the life of Holocaust martyr from Poland Janusz Korczak), chamber and orchestral music, and music for the theater. With composers Dennis DeSantis, Roshanne Etezady, and Ken Ueno, he founded the Minimum Security Composers Collective.
==Biography==
Beginning his musical career as a rock guitarist and songwriter, he went on to study classical composition at the Vienna Musikhochschule and Yale with composers such as Ned Rorem, Kurt Schwertsik, Ezra Laderman and Martin Bresnick. As a student, he was especially interested in the musical system of microtonal just intonation, and studied closely with composer Ben Johnston. His compositions ''Durham (Triangle Quartet)'' (1996, for string quartet) and ''Just Music Makes Me Lose My Temper'' (1995, for electric guitar, keyboard, and percussion) are just intonation compositions.
After composing ''Durham (Triangle Quartet)'', he turned away from just intonation to compose chromatic tonal music. These works reflect a variety of influences, including a series inspired by Irish dance music (''Corrie Q's Jigs and Reels (String Quartet No. 3)'', ''McAllister's Ceilidh'', and ''Spark in the Shoe''), Beatles songs (''In Another Man's Skin'', ''E Uno Plures'') and classical music (''Nocturnes and Reveries''). His most performed compositions are those for percussion ensembles, especially the quartet "Quick Blood."
Since 2006, Silverman has held the position of Professor of Music Theory and Composition at West Chester University of Pennsylvania.
