  • Bio

    Composer Edward Lein lives in Jacksonville, Florida, and holds Master's degrees in Music (major professor: John Boda) and Library Science from Florida State University. As a tenor soloist he appeared in recitals, oratorios and dramatic works throughout his home state, and drawing on his performance experience the majority of his early compositions were vocal works. Following the premieres by the Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra of his 'Meditation,' for Cello, Oboe and Orchestra (June 2006), and 'In the Bleak Midwinter' (December 2007) his instrumental catalog has grown, largely due to requests from Symphony players for new pieces. He endeavors to imbue his instumental pieces with a singing lyricism similar to that of his vocal works. By day, Ed is Music Librarian for the City of Jacksonville and has been the driving force behind the Music @ Main and Intermezzo Sunday concert series at Jacksonville's Main Library, which began in March 2006. The concerts, which mainly feature prominent musicians from the greater Jacksonville area and north Florida, have proven to be the best-attended series of adult programs in the history of Jacksonville Public Library.
