“Malachi’s Insomnia was an incredibly unique experience blending aspects of atmospheric soundscapes, spoken word, and original music in a creative way. Sitting in the audience made me feel like I was truly in a dream, experiencing the emotions of the subconscious through multiple senses at once. Not only was the music hauntingly beautiful and imaginative, but the different mediums through which Insomnia is presented was unique in itself. I think going beyond a conventional show, Insomnia is a fully immersive world that pushes the boundaries of how art itself can be presented.”

Listening to Malachi’s Insomnia was an experience like no other. From the moment I walked into the black box theatre, I was captivated visually, emotionally, and musically. As the music flowed through the room, I was enthralled by the choice of melodies, rhythms, and musical dynamics that were used to draw a picture of Malachi’s journey from doubt to hope. It was an immersive experience and was very well done. I recommend Malachi’s Insomnia to all who enjoy music!

Malachi’s show was amazingly cinematic. It was one of those shows that truly left an impact. The environment that Malachi created was unique and special, and the compositions were meaningful and beautiful. I would love to see it again if I could.

Malachi is one of the most thoughtful and trustworthy students I’ve had the pleasure of teaching. He is not only academically strong but also has a wonderful personality—kind, polite, and sincere. During his senior year, he composed “Insomnia,” which beautifully showcased his creativity and musical depth. Through this piece, he also demonstrated his talents as a guitarist and a natural leader, organizing performances and bringing his friends together on stage. Malachi has both artistic and organizational strengths, and it’s been inspiring to see his growth as a musician and collaborator.
