In January, his score for the film \u2018They Turned Our Desert Into Fire&#8217; won him the Gold Medal and Audience Choice Award for best music in the documentary feature category at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival.<\/p>\n<p>Later this year, Maddala hopes to wow crowds again during the premiere of \u2018A Journey In My Mother&#8217;s Footsteps,&#8217; directed by Dina Rosenmeier. The film follows \u2018Jessie&#8217; Rosenmeier&#8217;s work as an activist in India and her daughter&#8217;s resulting personal struggle and transformation. Maddala&#8217;s musical composition for this work fuses the ethnic influences of Carnatic, Hindustani, and Western culture to create \u2018wistful and ebullient&#8217; melodies.<\/p>\n<p>Also slated for a 2009 release, is recording artist Wendy Starland&#8217;s new album, which Maddala co-wrote and co-produced. \u00a0Starland was named \u2018VH1&#8217;s Best Emerging Artist&#8217; and has performed live with numerous musicians including Shawn Colvin, Jonatha Brooke and Maceo Parker.<\/p>\n<p>To hear Vivek&#8217;s latest projects and see his impressive resume, visit his <a title=\"Vivek Maddala's Official Website\" href=\"http:\/\/www.tadcaster.com\/music\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">official website<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Congratulations to Pro SONAR user, Vivek Maddala, on his election into the Society of Composers and Lyricists (SCL) Board of Directors.
