Estro Poetico-Armonico II

His music hailed by New Yorker critic Alex Ross as "deeply haunting," by the Los Angeles Times as one of five classical musicians "2014 Faces To Watch," and chosen as one of the "30 composers under 40" by Orpheus Chamber Orchestra's Project 440, Yotam Haber was born in Holland and grew up in Israel, Nigeria, and Milwaukee. He is the recipient of a Chamber Music America Commission, the Benjamin Danks Award from the American Academy of Arts, a Fromm Music Foundation commission, a NYFA award, the Rome Prize, and a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship.

Haber's first monographic album of chamber music, Torus, was hailed by New York's WQXR as "a snapshot of a soul in flux—moving from life to the afterlife, from Israel to New Orleans—a composer looking for a sound and finding something powerful along the way." A new portrait album will be released in 2023 on Sideband Records featuring Talea Ensemble, Don-Paul Kahl, the American Wild Ensemble, and vocalist Taylor Ward.

Current projects include New Water Music, an interactive work for the Louisiana Philharmonic and community musicians to be performed from boats and barges along the waterways of New Orleans, and a chamber opera The Voice Imitator with librettist Royce Vavrek.

Haber is Associate Professor of Composition at the UMKC Conservatory and Artistic Director Emeritus of MATA, the non-profit organization founded by Philip Glass dedicated to commissioning and presenting new works by young composers from around the world. His music is published by RAI Trade.
