Fun Fridays offer a refreshing mid-day break from work to indulge in physical, mental, or creative activity.

Professor Park hosted brand-new music compositions written by her students at Berklee. The pieces included Art songs, Game Music, Jazz/Classical, and Minimalistic music. This session was an opportunity to hear new music and see what’s happening in Boston’s vibrant musical place.

Presenter: Joo Park, PhD, is a composer and pianist. She seeks to write music that explores the dual nature of existence: simple and complex, obsessive and impulsive, serious and humorous, and tonal and atonal. She wants to create music that combines fascinating musical traditions, such as tonality and counterpoint, with her approach to timbre, chords, fast-changing meters, and texture. She intends to create music that is positive and easy to listen to, and yet intellectual.

Joo is the author of the book Musical Creativity in Composition and Improvisation, published by Springer. Her CD, Passionate Message, published by Silkheart, contains six of her compositions and piano performances. She received a PhD in Composition at the University of Minnesota. She is assistant professor of Composition at Berklee College of Music.
