Congratulations to East Buchanan senior Quincy Meyer, for his original jazz composition, “Bittersweet Tangerine,” winning first place in the high school jazz category of the Creating Original Music Project at the University of Missouri.

This contest is a statewide competition that recognizes Missouri students who compose original works in a variety of musical styles, including jazz, fine art, and popular music. Winning composers and their schools are awarded cash prizes. First place at the COMP festival is awarded $1,250, and earns $1,250 for the student’s school.

Quincy’s piece will be performed at the COMP Festival on April 22 at the Sinquefield Music Center at the University of Missouri.

This is Quincy’s second time placing first at the

COMP Festival. Last year, his original piece, “March of the Corn Stalks,” won in the fine art category. The jazz piece, “Bittersweet Tangerine,” previously won the MOAJE (Missouri Association for Jazz Education) original Jazz composition in February of this year. Quincy plans to attend college and major in music, focusing on composing music, playing in the orchestra, and jazz ensembles.
