In this episode, I chat with Mr. Erik Ulman. Mr. Ulman is a Lecturer in Music at Stanford University whose compositions have been performed by renowned interpreters, including the Arditti Quartet, Claire Chase, and the Formalist Quartet. He studied composition with Brian Ferneyhough at UCSD and Helmut Lachenmann at the Stuttgart Musikhochschule, and has received distinctions including a Fromm Foundation commission and a Hewlett Fellowship at the Djerassi Program. Beyond composing, Mr. Ulman is a published writer on music and the arts, and co-organizer (with Marcia Scott) of the Poto Festivals since 2004.
