Chris McIntyre presents
To TILT: Original Music for TILT Brass


Composer, trombonist, and producer Chris McIntyre presents New York-based TILT Brass' two projects, TILT SIXtet and TILT Creative Brass Band, with a full evening of extraordinary new Downtown brass music. This event kicks off TILT's on-going concert series To TILT: Original Music for TILT Brass. To TILT focuses solely on repertoire written for TILT's distinctive ensembles, with works that often embrace the playerly, composed/improvised hybrid aesthetic developed in New York's Downtown scene over the past 40 years. The Roulette program features 3 world premieres, 2 for SIXtet by the legendary Anthony Coleman and pianist/composer Pete Drungle, and the third by McIntyre for the 10-piece Creative Brass Band. Also featured are pieces by TILT Brass members (Curtis Hasselbring, Nate Wooley) and its esteemed colleagues John King and Nick Didkovsky. The personnel for this special event is filled with some of the best all-around instrumentalist/artists New York City has to offer, including Kevin Norton, Joe Fiedler, Russ Johnson, John Clark, Gareth Flowers, Jacob Garchik, and both Hasselbring and Wooley.
