about

MARISSA DiPRONIO

Marissa DiPronio is a Cincinnati-based composer pursuing a master's degree in music composition at the Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music. Since beginning her composition career in 2010, she has enjoyed multiple performances of her works, both nationally and overseas. She is grateful to The Happy Maladies and everyone else involved in the MLC project for the opportunity to create music together.

"Our voices are our first instruments. We begin using them almost instantly after we’re born. We are so used to hearing speech that we usually don’t even notice the dozens of conversations happening around us in the coffee shop, in the department store, in the restaurant. All these conversations, with their various tones and volumes and timbres and emotions, become the background music to our lives. But if we begin to isolate some of those voices, to really pinpoint what makes each human voice unique, we have a practically infinite spectrum of sounds to enjoy. This simple truth is what inspired me to set the Robert Frost text, not as a song, but as a recitation set to music, to let the words simply be, existing in the form of speech, the way the author had intended them to be." - MD
