Max Eidinoff

Max Eidinoff (2022) is a composer, improviser, and educator whose music is marked by creative audacity and dramatic flair.

His love of many popular and avant-garde styles creates a blend of influences resulting in soundscapes characterized as both absurd and surreal. Max writes in a variety of genres including art song, opera, concert music, computer music, film scores, and studio mixes. It is through a body of work which prioritizes storytelling and engages with ironic subtext that he aims to convey the complex adversities of the world we live in.

Max obtained his Bachelor of Music in Classical Composition from SUNY Purchase in 2022, studying with Laura Kaminsky, Gregory Spears, and Kamala Sankaram. He then attended The Peabody Institute for his Masters of Music, studying composition with Du Yun and Felipe Lara. He has also participated in Seal Bay Festival, Fresh Inc. Festival, zFestival, the Choral Chameleon Summer Institute, Atlantic Music Festival, The N.E.O. Voice Festival, Brevard Summer Festival, the NATS Mentoring Program for Composers, Edward T. Cone Composition Institute, Barcelona Modern International Composition Course, and Royaumont Voix Nouvelles Academy. Additionally, his music has been presented by the New Jersey Symphony, Northwestern University New Music Conference, Le Festival Messiaen au Pays de la Meije, and Sacramento State School of Music’s Festival of New American Music.

Most recently Max has been commissioned by the Conservatoire & Orchestre de Caen to write a new piece that will be premiered during their [aspects] festival of contemporary music in 2027.
