Arthur Gottschalk was born in
California, but raised in the Northeastern United States. He attended
the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor as a student in the Honors
College and in Pre-Med, but after two years he switched to the study of
music, receiving a Bachelor of Music degree in Music Composition, a
Master of Arts degree in Music Composition and English Literature, and
his Doctorate in Music Composition, studying with William Bolcom, Ross
Lee Finney, and Leslie Bassett. He is currently a Professor at Rice
University’s Shepherd School of Music, in Music Theory and Composition,
and where he chaired the department until 2010. In 1986 he co-founded
Modern Music Ventures, Inc., a company which held a recording studio
complex, a record production division, four publishing firms, and an
artist management division, and for whom he produced records for
PolyGram and Capitol. In 1998 Gottschalk abandoned these pursuits, in
order that he might devote himself more fully to music composition.
Gottschalk's teaching specialties include music business and law, film
music, music theory, music composition, and counterpoint. As a film and
television composer he numbers six feature films, twelve television
scores, and numerous industrial films and commercials among his
credits. Among other awards, he is a recipient of the Charles Ives
Prize of the American Academy of Arts and Letters, annual ASCAP Awards
since 1980, and has been a Composer-in-Residence at the famed
Columbia/Princeton Electronic Music Center and for the Piccolo Spoleto
Festival. He has recently been honored with the First Prize of the
Concorso Internazionale di Composizione Originale of Corciano, Italy
for his Concerto for Violin and Symphonic Winds,
a First Prize from the
Bassoon Chamber Music Composition Competition, and a First Prize from
the Ridgewood Symphony Orchestra. This year he was awarded the
prestigious Bogliasco Fellowship, for continued work and study in
Italy. Approaching two hundred compositions
in his catalog, his music is performed regularly in Europe, Asia, and
Australia, is recorded on New Ariel, Crystal, Summit, Capstone,
Beauport Classical, ERMMedia, Golden Crest, Ablaze Records, and
AURecordings, and is published by Subito Music, Shawnee Press, European
American Music Distributors, Potenza Music, Alea Publishing, TrevCo
Music, and The Spectrum Press (ASCAP). His book, Functional Hearing, is
published by Scarecrow Press, a division of Rowman & Littlefield.
