Núñez (born 1965 New York City) is an American conductor, composer, and the Director of the Young People’s Chorus of New York City.[1][2] Núñez founded the Young People's Chorus in 1988 "to provide children of all ethnic, religious, and economic backgrounds with a safe haven for personal and artistic growth."[3] He is a 2011 MacArthur Fellow.[4] LifeNúñez was born in New York City, and grew up in the Dominican Republic and New York's Washington Heights neighborhood.[5][6] He graduated from New York University in 1988 with a B.S. in piano performance.[7] Núñez is the recipient of numerous awards in addition to the MacArthur Fellowship, including a 2009 ASCAP Concert Music Award, the 2009 New York Choral Society’s Choral Excellence Award, and the 2005 Liberty Award from the New York Post.[8] He is a member of ASCAP.[9] Nunez founded an annual festival called Transient Glory in 2001. Transient Glory features original compositions created expressly for YPC by award-winning composers such as Paquito D'Rivera. The Transient Glory festival has been performed at leading New York City music venues such as Carnegie Hall.[10] Núñez also leads the University Glee Club of New York City, its fifth conductor since the all-men’s choir was established in 1894. He served as the director of choral activities at New York University from 2003 to 2010.[11] Nunez served as conductor of the 2011 North Carolina Middle School Honors Chorus.
