about
The music of American-born composer and singer/songwriter Ian Dicke includes works for orchestra, chorus, chamber ensembles, and electronic media. Heralded by the San Francisco Classical Voice as “colorful, well-designed, and deftly scored,” Ian’s music draws inspiration from his experiences of playing in pop, rock, and experimental groups.

In 2007, Ian was awarded a MetLife Creative Connections grant from the Meet the Composer Foundation
