Clark Ross
I am a composer of music for soloists, chamber groups, orchestra, voice, and electronics, as well as a guitarist and professor of Composition and Theory (since 1992) at Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada. I teach Composition, 2nd-year Music Theory (chromatic harmony and large form classical music), Renaissance Counterpoint, Baroque Counterpoint, and Music Technology. I have also taught Electronic Music, Orchestration, 20th-Century Techniques, Music History, Ear-Training, and Classical Guitar. I welcome feedback from all non-spam bots!
