Working in diverse media, her output ranges from chamber music to multimedia installations, dance, music theatre, opera and symphonic works. Palmer's music has been described as "a genre-bending, groove-laden universe of humour and iconoclasm". Her teachers and mentors include Louis Andriessen, Jack Body, Michael Gordon, Brian Ferneyhough, Paul Lansky, Annea Lockwood, Steve Mackey and Julia Wolfe. Moving from New Zealand to New York in 1990 to work with composer-performer Meredith Monk, Palmer completed her PhD in composition at Princeton University in 1999. Juliet Kiri Palmer is a composer and sound artist based in Toronto. Though The New York Times referred to Wuorinen as "the brainy serialist and Columbia professor", his music is not typically serialist in that it combines the tonal language of Arnold Sch�nberg with the rhythmic vitality of Stravinsky. Wuorinen has also been active as performer, an excellent pianist and a distinguished conductor of his own works as well as other twentieth century repertoire. A prolific creator, he has written more than 200 compositions to date. The Pulitzer Prize (he became the youngest composer to win the Pulitzer Prize in music in 1970) and the MacArthur Fellowship are just two among many awards, fellowships and other honors to have come his way. Born in New York in 1938, Wuorinen has been composing since he was five.
