Wayne Siegel
Wayne Siegel is an American composer, born 1953 in Los Angeles, California.
From 1971 to 1974 Siegel studied composition and philosophy at the University of California, Santa Barbara. After three years there he decided to complete his Bachelor of Arts degree in Århus, Denmark, where he studied with the noted Danish composer Per Nørgård.

Siegel has been the director of Danish Institute for Electronic Music (DIEM) in Aarhus since its foundation in 1986. In 2003, when DIEM was incorporated as a part of Det Jyske Musikkonservatorium (DJM) = Royal Academy of Music, Aarhus, he was appointed professor of electronic music at DJM.

Siegel's works show the influence of minimalism (particularly the pulse-based work of Steve Reich), as well as folk, blues, and rock music.
His works have been commissioned by the Kronos Quartet, Evelyn Glennie, Harry Sparnaay, Singcircle, and the Safri Duo.
