Testimonials
Kind words from some truly fantastic performers/educators/entrepreneurs!
“Bryce Owen’s music is thrilling, approachable, and presents numerous moments of lyrical beauty. His ‘Rumination’ for solo trumpet and piano was a commission that I knew would stand as a pillar for young trumpeters in the common performance repertoire. The way Owen writes his solo lines allows the trumpeter to access both virtuosic dominance as well as quiet delicacy. He also treats the piano not as an accompanist, but rather a secondary soloist. His music is often reflective of popular Broadway lines and chord progressions, which allows for a very enjoyable and easily digestible musical adventure.

“I absolutely love works by Bryce Owen!! I know that regardless of the overall style of the piece, I will be left with a tune that is very audience-centric. No matter what type of ensemble it is written for, his music will always cause the listener to walk away humming a section of the composition. Truly, music that fully encompasses the popular music genre in combination with the classical realm.

“I come to Bryce Owen any time I want to play something compelling, whimsical, and with wide appeal to audiences. Whether it’s a piece he’s already written or a new commission, his music always delivers and then some. His works often leave audiences humming and singing after a concert, with professional musicians and newcomers alike fully enthralled by the performance. Owen’s compositions never disappoint and always leave the audience - and also the performers - wanting more of his music. I am always happy and ready to perform his music, and have proudly performed his work in recorded albums, chamber recitals, and large ensemble concerts.
