Andre’s music has been commissioned and performed by the Albany Symphony Orchestra, the Michigan Philharmonic, Orchestra Santa Monica, and presented across the United States and Europe. He received his B.Mus. in composition from the Eastman School of Music, and his M.Mus. and DMA in composition from the University of Michigan. A committed music educator, Andre Myers is on the music faculty of the University of Redlands in Redlands, California. He lives with his wife, Andrea; their dogs, Charlotte & Walter; and their cat, Jean-Paul. Learn more at andremyers.com.

My mom, Beverly, was an oil painter. Her work employed bold colors and daring lines. She didn’t paint with brushes; she preferred creating art with palette knives. I composed this piece a year after she died. When I was composing, I was drawn to her dauntless style of painting. It was a nice way to channel her memory. Painting with Knives (2022) was commissioned by, and warmly dedicated to, my friend Tim McAllister.
