HEATHER FRASCH, Composer

Heather, a native of Philadelphia, just returned to the United States to pursue her doctorate in composition from UC Berkeley, from France where she lived as an expatriate for the past seven years. She received her Medaille d'Argent in composition and electro-acoustic music from the Conservatoire Nationale de Region de Lyon where she studied with Professor Christophe Maudot and Stephane Borrell. Before her sojourn in Lyon, she lived in Paris where she took private lessons with Betsy Jolas and Yoshishia Taira.
