Christopher J. Hoh Composer Bio
Christopher J. Hoh hails from Pennsylvania and the Washington, D.C. area. He has
participated in workshops with Jean Berger, Daniel Moe, Robert Page, Mack Wilberg
and Alice Parker, who chose him as a conducting fellow in 2015.
Chris’s current commissions include a holiday piece for SATB & piano for the 700-
member Encore Chorales; two American folksong settings for Alexandria, VA middle

The Stuttgart German-American chorus called on him to write an extended setting of
the O Antiphons for choir & organ, premiering in 2014.
California's Meistersingers requested new work from him: Shakespeare's "My Mistress'
Eyes" for SATB a cappella (2014) and an SSATBB of the 16th-Century carol “Ein Kind
Geborn In Bethlehem” (2013). His six-part “Angele Dei” was reprised and taken on tour
by the William & Mary College choir in 2014-15. Recent years have seen premieres of
Chris Hoh’s work in Colorado, Massachusetts, and West Virginia, as well as Austria and
Spain. His work has been published by Augsburg Fortress Press and Art of Sound Music.
His work has been included on ERM Media’s “Made in the Americas” CD in 2008 and the
forthcoming CD “Undiscovered Choral Gems” from Phoenix Classical. Chris Hoh
