Accomplished Composer
As a composer, Turre has spent over two decades crafting works for licensing which has been used in small films, television, video games, and theater. Among her notable achievements is her score and thirteen original jazz songs for Lena: Lessons from a Lady, a musical celebrating the life of Lena Horne, which premiered at Baltimore Center Stage in 2019 and starred Broadway veteran Syndee Winters.
Her latest composition, From the Earth, was fully realized through grant funding. Premiering at the community center in her hometown of Bedford, NY, the suite not only showcased her artistic voice but also fostered climate action by partnering with local environmental organizations. Like all performances of From the Earth, audiences have been connected with local climate initiatives such as composting programs, free energy audits, environmental advocacy training, and free rewilding consultations. She continues to partner through collaboration with the community members heard on the album by elevating the non-profits supporting them.
