Phil Acimovic is a composer, sound artist, and gamelan musician living in 

Easthampton, MA. He writes quiet, austere music for solo and chamber

​

I compose quiet, slow music. I try to access abstract emotions, the quiet corners of the mind that are obstructed in our hyperactive world. My recent work is a set of solo pieces inspired by painters with whom I feel artistic kinship, Piet Mondrian, Mark Rothko, and Agnes Martin. These pieces were written to balance or complement the disquietude of the Covid pandemic.
