Karl is a cellist and composer who writes and performs art songs for solo voice and cello. His music is rooted in an ongoing physical investigation of the kinetic relationships he observes in nature, which he documents with his Somatic Natural History Archive. While performing as a singing-cellist is his primary passion these days, his curiosity has led to him wear many hats over the years. Highlights have included conducting neuroscience research on the effects of music on brain development at Harvard Medical School, coaching artists as a grant administrator at the New England Foundation for the Arts, managing contemporary dance companies (Misnomer Dance Theater, The Equus Projects), and producing music/theater productions and art installations with Karl Cronin Projects. Karl holds a BA in Music and Psychology from Boston College and currently studies music composition with Randy Craig. karlcronin.com
