Christopher McIntyre

Experimental composer and trombonist Christopher McIntyre has been developing a number of large ensemble projects in the past few years, both as a leader and collaborator. Several of them will fill Roulette's stage this evening, including TILT Brass Band, Lotet and Ne(x)tworks. A thread that carries through each group is both technical and spiritual: mapping the space between composition and improvisation.

Tonight's program will include the much-anticipated premiere of "A31," a hybrid multimedia score inspired by the "police state" surrounding the 2004 Republican National Convention. McIntyre will also present new works commissioned by Roulette and the Jerome Foundation. Performed by an impressive array of new music’s heaviest-hitters, including Joan La Barbara, Cornelius Dufallo, Miguel Frasconi, Peter Evans and Nate Wooley.
