BIOGRAPHY
  WORKS
  REVIEWS

George Boziwick’s music has broad appeal, incorporating a variety of styles and colors ranging from traditional Gregorian chant to rhythm and blues, as well as the early American hymns and fuguing tunes of the Sacred Harp tradition, engaging the listener and performer on a variety of levels. His music reflects his multifaceted interests and experience in composition, performance and music scholarship.

George Boziwick’s sacred works include two full Roman Catholic Masses for choir, congregation, and organ, as well as a work for Christmas, Advent Calendar for unaccompanied voices on a text by Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury. The work garnered high praise from the Archbishop himself. The Magnificat, for voices, organ and congregation, was commissioned by the Oratory Church of St. Boniface in Brooklyn, NY. It has been performed by a number of ensembles both in and outside the traditional church setting including a performance by conductor Judith Clurman at Clare College, Cambridge.

He has had works commissioned and performed by a variety of ensembles, organizations, and individuals including the Dorian Wind Quintet, The James Pappoutsakis Memorial Flute Competition, The National Association of Composers, the Newport Music Festival, and Composers Concordance. He was the composer in-residence for the Goliard Ensemble's 2005 Southeastern Music Festival. He has received grants from the American Music Center, Meet the Composer and The Mary Flagler Cary Charitable Trust, and his music has been recorded on the Opus One label as well as broadcast on radio and television here and abroad.

George Boziwick holds a Master of Library Service degree from Columbia University and is Curator of the American Music Collection in the Music Division of The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts at Lincoln Center. Mr. Boziwick has been an active member of the Music Library Association and has been on the Board of the Society for American Music. His recent article "Henry Cowell in The New York Public Library: A Whole World of Music" was published in NOTES: The Journal of the Music Library Association. He has also contributed articles to American Music, American Organist, the New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians, The New Grove Dictionary of Jazz, and the forthcoming Routledge Encyclopedia of the Blues.

In addition, he is a blues harmonica player, and has performed with a number of bands and on recordings featuring rhythm and blues musicians such as Bob Gaddy, Larry Dale, and Roscoe Gordon.
