New York-based TILT Brass is a collective of creative brass and percussion artists that has presented the work of its members and peers since 2003. Members of TILT's two projects, the 10-piece Creative Brass Band and 6-piece SIXtet, are recognized leaders in the fields of avant jazz and experimental concert music. Many vital New York venues have presented TILT Brass projects over its 6 year history including Whitney Museum, BAM Café, Joe's Pub, The Stone, Issue Project Room, Barbés, and Tonic.
In addition to performing historical and contemporary works by luminaries from the experimental tradtion, the repertoire for both groups features over a dozen original compositions created with TILT's distinctive ensemble concept in mind. This ever-evolving list of idiosyncratic pieces includes works by Anthony Coleman, John King, Chris Jonas, Taylor Ho Bynum, and by group members Kevin Norton and Director Chris McIntyre. [more] |
