About Me

Dmitri Tymoczko (b. 1969, Cambridge, Massachusetts) is a composer and music theorist who teaches at Princeton University. His book A Geometry of Music (Oxford) has been described as "a tour de force" (The Times Literary Supplement), a "monumental achievement" (Music Theory Online), and, potentially, a modern analogue to Schoenberg's Harmonielehre (The Musical Times). His first three CDs, Beat Therapy ("far reaching yet utterly entertaining," Newmusicbox), Crackpot Hymnal ("ebullient ... polystylistic ... kinetic ... vividly orchestrated and vibrantly paced," Sequenza21), and and Rube Goldberg Variations ("foot tapping," "sassy," Limelight), are available from Bridge Records. A fourth, Fools and Angels is available from New Focus.
