We asked our 2023–24 fellows—Maria Emiliano, Ilaria Hawley, Haeon Lee, Peyton Nelesen, Marvel Roth, and Hannah Wolkowitz—what inspired the pieces they have been working on with their mentors this year. Read on to see where they each found inspiration.

The next annual Luna Lab Festival will be held from June 17-22, 2024. The 2023–24 fellows will travel to San Francisco to participate in six days of workshops, master classes, networking events, performances, and more, culminating in a performance of their world premiere compositions by Kronos Quartet.

“…advocacy and mentoring are as essential to my creative practice as composing every day. I could not continue to be a composer in this field if I weren’t helping the next generation to have a slightly easier time.” –Missy Mazzoli
