Alex Weiser is a composer of chamber, orchestral and vocal music. He was born in New York City in 1989. He began seriously studying music while attending Stuyvesant High school writing pieces for the symphonic orchestra there, while studying theory and conducting with Joseph Tamosaitis, and composition with Paul Alan Levi. Alex is currently studying composition as an undergraduate at Yale University with Kathryn Alexander and Michael Klingbeil. He is also president of Yale's undergraduate composer's organization "IGIGI".

Alex has also studied at summer programs and festivals with composers such as Martin Bresnick at Norfolk, David Felder and Bernard Rands at June in Buffalo, and Phillip Lasser and Michel Merlet at EAMA.

Alex’s music is often contrapuntal and chromatic drawing influences from a diverse variety of sources within and outside of concert music. His music often utilizes common musical languages or uses repetition to create clear contexts so that the musical discourse can be at once complex and abstract but also very real, accessible, and understandable.
