About Brian Israel
- Brian Israel (February 5, 1951 - May 7, 1986), was an American composer, pianist, and conductor.
- He was a faculty member of the Syracuse University School of Music from 1975 until his death, at age 35, from leukemia.
- He left a large number of symphonic, chamber, and solo works, several of which have been recorded for Spectrum, Redwood, Pro-Viva, Innova Records, and Albany Records.
- "His music is marked by extreme contrasts in tempo and mood, often following a witty or downright funny movement with one that is deadly serious." In his honor, the Syracuse Society for New Music awards the Brian Israel Prize every year to an emerging New York State composer.
- In addition, Syracuse University gives the Brian Israel Award each year to a deserving student composer at the university.
