---------------------
 
Libby Larsen (b. 24 December 1950, Wilmington, Delaware) is one of America’s most performed living
 
composers. She has created a catalogue of over 500 works spanning virtually every genre from intimate
 
vocal and chamber music to massive orchestral works and over twelve operas. Grammy Award winning
 
and widely recorded, including over fifty CDs of her work, she is constantly sought after for commissions
 
and premieres by major artists, ensembles, and orchestras around the world, and has established a
 
permanent place for her works in the concert repertory.
 
 
 
As a vigorous, articulate advocate for the music and musicians of our time, in 1973 Larsen co-founded the
 
Minnesota Composers Forum, now the American Composer’s Forum. A former holder of the Papamarkou
 
Chair at John W. Kluge Center of the Library of Congress, Larsen has also held residencies with the
 
Minnesota Orchestra, the Charlotte Symphony, and the Colorado Symphony. Her career has been
 
recognized with several awards including MIT’s McDermott award, the Peabody Award, and the American
 
Academy’s Arts and Letters Award. <ref>https://libbylarsen.com/</ref>
