Biographical overview woman composer, female composer  

Alex Shapiro has become one of the Pacific coast's most familiar composers of acoustic and electroacoustic chamber music. Performed and broadcast weekly across the U.S. and internationally, Alex's music is lyrically expressive, dramatic and often rhythmically driven. Published by Activist Music, Ms. Shapiro's scores are widely distributed, and found in libraries and universities nationwide. Alex's music has been recorded by many artists and is available on CDs from Cambria Master Recordings, Innova Recordings, Crystal Records, DC Records, Centaur Records, Quindecim Recordings, Oehms Classics and others. Her life and music were the subject of the one-hour show American MusicMakers, broadcast in February 2006 on public radio stations across the United States.

Born in New York City in 1962 and raised in Manhattan, Alex began composing at age nine. She was educated at The Juilliard School and Manhattan School of Music, where she was a composition student of Ursula Mamlok and John Corigliano. Earlier composition studies from age fifteen were with Leo Edwards at Mannes College of Music and with Michael Czajkowski and George Tsontakis at the Aspen Music School. An accomplished pianist, Ms. Shapiro was a student of New York recitalist Marshall Kreisler, and she is an active guitarist as well.

Ms. Shapiro is the recipient of national honors and awards including those from The American Music Center, ASCAP, the American Composers Forum and Mu Phi Epsilon, and she has been awarded artist fellowships from The California Arts Council and The MacDowell Colony.

An enthusiastic leader in the new music community, Alex is a strong advocate for other artists through her speaking appearances and her published articles. She is the recent President of the Board of Directors of The American Composers Forum of Los Angeles, and has served as an officer on the boards of national music organizations including NACUSA, The College Music Society, and The Society of Composers & Lyricists. Alex's volunteer activism also encompasses three terms she served on the Board of Directors of the ACLU of Southern California, including two years as the 30,000-member affiliate's Vice-president.

Articulate, passionate and entertaining, Ms. Shapiro has appeared as a speaker at a wide variety of music events, including NARAS' Grammy® in the Schools, the Los Angeles Philharmonic's First Nights series, IAWM's International Congress of Women in Music and each of ASCAP's I Create Music Expos in Hollywood.

A longtime resident of Malibu, California, Alex now resides on Washington State's San Juan Island, and when she's not composing she can often be found ocean kayaking, sailing, or communing with the sea life at the tide pools, evidence of which can be found on her blog, Notes from the Kelp.
