NotesSteven Sharp Nelson began developing his musical talents at a very early age. His first composition, for percussion ensemble, was written before he could even read music. His skills and interests are rooted in the cello, voice, guitar, and percussion. Nelson's ability and style span many instruments and genres of music most aptly in classical, cultural, folk, and improvisational music. He has written many pieces for a variety of ensembles, and is most acclaimed for his works written for symphony, chorale, and for film. Among these works are 'Farewell,' a piece written at age 15, which was performed by the Utah Symphony, 'Supplication,' an acapella piece written for the memory of 9/11 victims, and 'Spanish Trail Suite,' a nationally commissioned symphony commemorating the Old Spanish Trail. Steven Sharp Nelson is no stranger to the stage and is also sought after by recording studios. His cello sounds can be heard on over 100 different albums some of which have been at the top of the Billboard charts. He was deemed 'the best cellist in Utah' by KSFI FM100 and in 2004 he was nominated as the best studio musician of the year by the FCMA.
