and moved there in 1971 for its "space, light and timelessness." Since

Teachers Association and the New Mexico Composers Guild, and national
chair of the Music Teachers National Association Student Composition

competition for Voices from Chaco, a concertino for piano and
woodwind quintet. Introduction of the Child to the Cosmos,
for mixed chorus and piano, won first place in a national competition
sponsored by Ithaca College and Theodore Presser. Fajada Butte,
a symphonic movement commissioned and recorded by the New Mexico Symphony
Orchestra, was performed by the National Repertory Orchestra at the
20th-Anniversary celebration concert of the National
Endowment for the Arts at the Kennedy
Center for the Performing Arts. Mauldin teaches privately and
directs the Albuquerque Boy

the ages of 8 and 16, who tour, record and proceed through a rigorous
musicianship program. For more information about Michael Mauldin and a list of his compositions, please visit his website at www.mmauldin.com
