Hailed by the Boston Musical Intelligencer as a composer of “true musicality,” Mr. Greene writes "shimmering" music (New Music Box) that wholeheartedly embraces the aesthetic diversity of the modern world. Recent engagements include performances by the Boston Musica Viva, the Atlanta Chamber Players, the New Haven Symphony Orchestra (and Wind Quintet), loadbang ensemble, Christopher Houlihan, Transient Canvas, Balletik Duo, and many others.

National Finals in Atlanta, his piece abstractEXTRACTION garnered the Internet Audience Favorite Award. Mr. Greene’s piece The Long Walk was recently chosen as the official anthem of Trinity College’s Cornerstone Campaign, a $32.9 million-dollar restoration project. In 2011, Patrick became the youngest commissioned composer in the two-decade history of Boston Musica Viva Family Concerts.

Mr. Greene earned his MM degree in Composition from The Boston Conservatory in May 2010, where he studied with Andy Vores and Dalit Warshaw. He graduated with a BA in Music from Trinity College in 2007, as a student of Gerald Moshell, Douglas Bruce Johnson, and John Rose.
