Stephen Chatman Arrangements
 Stephen Chatman (b 1950) is a graduate of the Oberlin Conservatory and the Univesity of Michigan. He has won numerous awards and has received many commissions through the Canada Council and the CBC. Mr. Chatman's more than seventy published choral works are widely performed and his orchesral compositions have been performed by symphonies across the globe. Stylistically, many of Chatman's pre-1982 works are complex, virtuosic, and atonal. His early chamber works, in particular, are highly concerned with colour, contrast, and tightly controlled motivic development. By the late 70's, Chatman's music suggests a more complete musical expression, encompassing a broad range of musical traditions, eclecticism, and post-modern aesthetics: collage techniques, simplified musical language, tonality, modality, minimalism, traditional forms, popular music influences, counterpoint of styles, veiled references, and theatrical elements. Currently he is a Professor of Composition at he the University of British Columbia School of Music in Vancouver, Canada.
