Distinct harmonic languaging

November 27, 2025 by Graphite Publishing Leave a Comment

Featuring the catalogs of

Tracy Wong Series & Isaac Lovdahl

Isaac Lovdahl is an award-winning composer, conductor, educator, and bass-baritone vocalist who serves as Director of Choral Activities and Assistant Professor of Music at Bemidji State University. His music has been described as “a revelation” and “remarkable” (The American Prize). Isaac’s choral compositions and art songs have been performed internationally by educational, community-based, and professional ensembles and soloists among others. A distinct harmonic language, detailed attention to natural speech rhythms, and highly expressive text setting have solidified a niche for him in the realm of vocal music.

Dr. Tracy Wong hails from Malaysia and is a choral conductor, music educator, composer, vocalist, and pianist. She advocates for repertoire-based music education by writing pieces that are teaching tools for singers to develop vocal technique, musicianship skills, and artistry. Purchasing With A Purpose: A portion of income from Tracy’s music and workshops goes toward providing professional development for Malaysian choral educators, or financial support for a Malaysian choral organization.
