Brown was First Prize winner of the Concert Artists Guild Competition, a winner of the Bowers Residency from the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center (formerly CMS Two), a recipient of the Juilliard Petschek Award, and is a Steinway Artist. He earned dual bachelor's and master's degrees in piano and composition from The Juilliard School, where he studied with pianists Jerome Lowenthal and Robert McDonald and composers Samuel Adler and Robert Beaser. Additional mentors have included Andrs Schiff and Richard Goode as well as his early teachers, Herbert Rothgarber and Adam Kent. Noctuelles features two 20th century gems of the piano literature Ravel's Miroirs and Medtner's Second Improvisation, Op 47. The first movement of Miroirs is inspired by the above line by Ravel's close friend, poet Lon-Paul Fargue. The word 'noctuelles' is an obscure description of moths in French, not widely used, and reflects Ravel's penchant for the mysterious.
