Devin Cholodenko is a composer who writes music that falls within a skewed tonal framework, with focus and intention. As an artist, Cholodenko is deeply interested in the introspection of time and memory and what that means to the experience of reality. Other inspiration comes from nature, cognition, mortality, extreme experiences, mythology, and personal identity. 

His music has been performed, read, and recorded across the United States and internationally by ensembles such as JACK Quartet, Momenta Quartet, HUB New Music, Switch Ensemble, Arx Duo, and Bent Frequency, and has been featured as part of Composers Now, Red Note, Mizzou New Music Initiative, June in Buffalo, Charlotte New Music, the Rochester Fringe Festival, Nextet Contemporary Music Series, and the International Electro-Acoustic Music Festival in Brooklyn, among other events and festivals. His work has earned recognition by the American Viola Society, NewEar, The Society of Composers, Creatives Rebuild New York and other organizations in various calls, competitions, and grants. He has held residencies at Atlantic Center for the Arts and Kimmel Harding Nelson. His mentors have included Chen Yi, Zhou Long, Yotam Haber, Dorothy Hindman, and Charles Mason.
