Help Bring My Music to Life!
Support My Graduate Composition Recital
Who I Am
Hi! I’m a second-year graduate student at Northern Arizona University pursuing my Master of Music in Composition. I believe that every good and perfect gift comes from above—including the gift of music. Through the pieces I write, I hope to share beauty, meaning, and inspiration with the world.
My Recital
As part of my graduation requirements, I will be presenting an hour-long recital of entirely original music this fall—and I couldn’t be more excited! The performance will take place on November 15th in Ardrey Memorial Auditorium, right here on NAU’s beautiful campus.
My recital will feature a wide range of ensembles, including:
- Full orchestra
- Brass ensemble
- Jazz band
- Woodwind quintet
- Solo piano
In total, around 80 musicians will be collaborating to bring this music to life!
Why I Need Your Help
Classical musicians often juggle gigs, teaching, ensemble work, and side jobs to make ends meet. That’s why, to honor their time and talent, I’m committed to compensating each musician who participates in this project.
Your donation will go directly toward hiring these talented performers—not only ensuring their time is respected, but also helping elevate the artistry and professionalism of the entire event.
By contributing, you’re not just supporting one recital—you’re helping dozens of musicians grow, collaborate, and create something meaningful for our community.
A Note of Gratitude
Thank you for taking the time to learn about my project. I truly believe that people’s time and talent are never free—and your generosity allows me to recognize and celebrate that. Your support empowers this recital to reach its full potential and gives me the chance to honor every artist involved.
Donate Today
If you believe in the power of music and the importance of supporting student creativity, I invite you to donate today. Every dollar helps—and every gift makes a difference.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart,
Christopher Eis
