Heitzeg has written more than 100 works, including compositions for orchestra, chorus, chamber ensemble, ballet and PBS films.Named Composer of the Year at the 2000 Minnesota Music Awards, Heitzeg has amassed a large body of compositions that address social and environmental issues with vision and compassion in such works as Aqua (Hommage à Jacques-Yves Cousteau), Blessed Are the Peacemakers, Blue Liberty, Elegy on Water, Endangered, Nobel Symphony, Symphony to the Prairie Farm, Voice of the Everglades (Epitaph for Marjory Stoneman Douglas) and Wounded Fields.Two recent works, both funded through a 2005 Archibald Bush Artist Fellowship, include Social Movements, a ballet premiered by the James Sewell Ballet in 2008, and Song Without Borders, a four movement string quartet premiered in 2008 by the Daedalus Quartet at the United Nations’ New York headquarters.
