David Felder has long been recognized as a leader in his generation of American composers. His works have been featured at many of the leading international festivals for contemporary music, and earn continuing recognition through performance and commissioning programs. Felder’s work has been broadly characterized by its highly energetic profile, through its frequent employment of technological extension and elaboration of musical materials (including his *Crossfire* video series, and the video/music collaboration *Shamayim*), and its lyrical qualities. Felder has received numerous grants and commissions including many composer’s awards from the National Endowment for the Arts, two New York State Council commissions, a New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowship, Guggenheim, two Koussevitzky commissions, two Fromm Foundation Fellowships, two awards from the Rockefeller Foundation, Meet the Composer “New Residencies” (1993–1996), composer residency with the Buffalo Philharmonic, two commissions from the Mary Flagler Cary Trust, and many more. - ## Commission Date [1990](/commissiondate/1990) [1998](/commissiondate/1998) - ## Completion Date [1993](/completiondate/1993) [2002](/completiondate/2002) - ## Composer [Felder, David](/composer/felder-david) - ## Commissions [Past Commissions](/pastcommisions)
