André Hamil is a versatile composer interested in the performance environment as much as the composing process.   His compositions have been performed regularly since the mid-1980s, and his music has been heard in Montreal, Brussels, Toronto, Sofia, Bologana, Vienna, Miami and Lyons.   This album presents an overview of his development as a composer, and consists of works written over the last 15 years.
