I can be reached most easily via e-mail at william@williamkenlon.com. Contact me for inquiries about purchasing scores of existing pieces or for quotes on any of the following services: Commissions for solo instruments, chamber groups, or large ensembles; Arrangements of existing works My original works have been performed in venues as small as living rooms and as large as concert halls, and I've arranged strings and horns for a variety of non-classical settings including commercial recording projects and live shows at such venues as the 9:30 Club. Instruction in music fundamentals, ear training, theory, harmony, counterpoint, composition, basic piano skills, notation software In private lessons and classroom teaching, the primary goal is that when I first encounter students, I must meet them wherever they may be on their musical path. I define that "path" as itself having two dimensions: it is a long path in terms of the journey from beginner to expert, and it is also a broad path in terms of the range of influences and musical voices that must be nurtured. Therefore, I strive to reach students with methods flexible enough to span both dimensions of the path that they are traveling. Transpositions of existing works (ex: art songs that are too high or low for a singer) Transcriptions of recordings (I did a whole series of these for fun in 2013) Reductions from large ensemble to small ensemble or piano/vocal Electronic engraving (manuscript or printed music to Finale) I've been a Finale user for 20 years and I create, edit, and format scores fluently. Again, e-mail is the easiest way to reach me, but I'm also easy to find on a number of social media and music-sharing platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, SoundCloud, and YouTube.
