Dylan Mattingly

Mattingly was the co-director of Formerly Known as Classical in San Francisco for two years—a youth-run new music organization which played only music written within their lifetimes, and is currently the co-artistic director and cellist of Contemporaneous, a new music ensemble based in New York “dedicated to performing the most exciting music of this generation.” Contemporaneous has released an album on INNOVA Records, entitled Stream of Stars—Music of Dylan Mattingly.

Various performance groups have featured Mattingly's work, including the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Cabrillo Festival Orchestra, and the Berkeley Symphony. Several solo artists and small ensembles have performed his work as well, including Soovin Kim, Ignat Solzhenitsyn, Sarah Cahill (pianist), Geoffrey Burleson, Mary Rowell, Other Minds, Symphony Parnassus, the Da Capo Chamber Players, and the Del Sol String Quartet.

Mattingly has received commissions from the Albany Symphony Orchestra, Zofo Duet, & the Norfolk Chamber Music Festival (2016); the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra, pianists Sarah Cahill (pianist) & Kathleen Supove (2015); Cabrillo Festival of Contemporary Music & Contemporaneous (2014); The Berkeley Symphony, Del Sol Quartet, John Coolidge Adams and Deborah O’Grady for the Cabrillo Festival Orchestra (2012).
