Songs by Jeremiah Evans, among others, were recorded for "Brownlee’s labour of love (Rising) – bringing together a new generation of composers with classic texts... recording all with indefatigable energy and style" (Gramophone, London). His songs have been described by The Washington Classical Review as having "surprising twists, as well as a pleasing melodic style", while some of his piano music has been described as being inspired by "urban sounds, jazzy inflections, and an Impressionist milkiness" by The New York Times. A featured composer in Classical Singer Magazine, he has also been included among "consummate melodists" by OperaWire.
He has been recognized as a finalist-composer in The New York City Contemporary Music Symposium- Call for Scores (Three Inventions for piano solo) and a winner of the Locrian Chamber Players' Call for Scores in New York City (Five Pages From a City Journal for piano solo).

SPOTLIGHT ​
Here I'd like to highlight
recent & notable scores
​
CONCERTO
for piano & string orchestra
by Jeremiah Evans
​
My recently revised Concerto is
cast in 4 compact movements:
1) Prelude variations, 2) Scherzo,
3) Fantasy, & 4) Toccata.
I sketched this work out in
college over 20 years ago
but lost track of the manuscript
until it was rediscovered at the
bottom a box of papers
that had been misplaced. Over
the past year or so, I have
revised the piece and have
realized my lifelong dream of
completing my favorite of
all the large-scale genres of
classical repertoire-
The Piano Concerto!
PLEASE LISTEN TO THE NEW
REVISED EDITION BELOW
