VA - Dawn (2025) [Hi-Res]

Vonn Vanier is a new American composer and pianist who – at the remarkable age of 17 – is making his recording debut with the album Dawn, a survey of his orchestral, chamber and solo piano works with Montclair Records.

In early childhood in San Francisco, Vanier received his primary musical training over five years as a member of the professional Grace Cathedral Choir of Men and Boys, for which he composed a hymn the choir performed at his eighth-grade graduation ceremony – an experience that inspired him to immerse himself in the craft of composing.

Then, the trajectory of Vanier’s development became unique.
