Reena Esmail

Reena Esmail is an Indian-American composer of Indian and Western classical music. She strives to create equitable musical spaces by bridging the gap between the two classical music traditions. Esmail has been commissioned to compose pieces for ensembles including Amherst College Choir and Orchestra, Santa Fe Pro Musica, Conspirare, and the Los Angeles Master Chorale. Composer Andrew Norman selected her work for violin Darshan for a 2020 feature in The New York Times, calling it "familiar and fresh, intimate and epic, grounded and aloft."
