Every Monday of the month an episode of our new series about the current generation of Dutch composers. Who influences who? What are important sources for musical inspiration? And what are their motives?
In this fourth episode composer Trevor Grahl who was born in Canada.

We will broadcast recent works of them every month, but also ask them for one key piece that is dear to them or that played an important role in their development. To conclude we will ask them to play a work from a colleague for the next episode of this series. In this way a canon new Dutch music will automatically develop.
In this fourth episode composer Trevor Grahl who was born in Canada. After his studies at the universities of Montreal and San Diego he moved to Amsterdam to complete his Master at the Amsterdam Conservatoire at Richard Ayres.His music balances between melancholy and humorous contrary. Therefore it wasn’t completely a coincidence that for this programme he chose works by Charles Ives and Richard Ayres who were great examples to him. Grahl will also be heard in his programme as organ player in a work by Thanasis Degliannis who, not by accident, was selected by Grahl as the central composer for our next episode on 21 September.
