Elena Neitlich

COMPOSER

The compositions of Elena Neitlich might best be described as painting with musical notes on a canvas of staff paper. Originally a 2D artist, she explored various mediums before landing serendipitously on musical composition. A stickler for tiny details, coupled with a fascination of texture, negative space, rhythm, shape, pattern, and melody infuses her music with light, color, space and harmony. Listeners will hear a purposeful incorporation of painterly techniques within her music as well as a hint of her irreverent wit.

Elena holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Binghamton University (SUNY). She currently works under the tutelage of composer Matthew Kennedy (DMA). She lives on the Gulf Coast of Florida with her husband (the love of her life) entrepreneur Andrew Neitlich and their three children.
