Blackbox Ensemble Presents: Jessie Cox Portrait
The BlackBox Ensemble is thrilled to present a portrait concert of composer Jessie Cox, one of the most daring and experimental composers of our time. Sitting at the intersection of avant-garde classical, experimental jazz, and sound art, Cox’s music invites us to step into an ever-expanding sound world. In this portrait, the BlackBox Ensmeble pairs a selection of Cox’s solo and chamber works with works by two composers – Dai Fujikura and George Lewis – whose influence on Cox has shaped his own music.
