Andrew Zohn began composing for the guitar in 1998, and has already received commissions for new works from La Flame Records, Canada, the Campbell University Foundation for the Arts, and the East Carolina New Music Festival. In recognition of his guitar compositions, Zohn was the recipient of a Plus Award from the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP).
