Description
================
Tim Janis, who has conducted the Czech National Symphony, the Kwazulu Natal
Philharmonic, and the Hartford Symphony Orchestra in addition to writing his
own music, studied piano and received a degree in composition from the
University of New Hampshire in 1991. He has cited composers John Williams, John
Barry, and Hans Zimmer as major influences, but has experimented with several
forms of the art, writing musicals (produced at UNH), synthesized pop songs
with vocals, scores for small independent films, and even country, jazz,
acoustic, and hard rock arrangements. Owning a record label and studio, Tim
Janis Ensemble, in Kennebunk, ME, has allowed the composer the freedom to
continue interacting with musicians from many genres, the fruit of which is
seen in his extensive discography. A prolific recording artist, Janis has
released over 15 solo compositions, among them Etain (1996), A Thousand Summers
(2002), Across Two Oceans (2004), and Coming Home (2005), as well as many
Christmas recordings. His work generally concerns itself with strong and
descriptive melodies, often regarding the beauty of nature (for example,
1996's Along the Shore of Acadia, a rich tone poem inspired by the national park), proving it the perfect accompaniment for two public television programs extolling the physical splendor of the United States, Beautiful America (2004) and Coastal America (2006), both narrated by actor George Clooney. Janis also performed in a live special for PBS, 2001's
An American Composer in Concert, with the American Symphony Orchestra, whom he
conducted. Believing that music can be more than entertainment, the composer
began his Music with a Mission project, with the purpose of encouraging
understanding and cognizance between different people and cultures. He has
brought the all-female HIV-positive South African choir Sinikithemba to the
U.S. to raise awareness about the AIDS epidemic there, performed a series of
concerts in China to bridge communication between the two countries, and as of
2006 was still leading the Music in Our Schools volunteer program, which is
meant to inspire elementary school students to create and study music. ~ Marisa
