60×60 – 60 new works, 60 seconds in length for one hour of new music.<\/p>\n
Each year the project grows in artistic and distributive scope. Achieving
\nits initiative, the 60×60 promotes contemporary composition across the
\nglobe. This year we are having our 3rd annual Pacific Rim Mix. Our premier
\nwill be at Mills College in their Ensemble Room at 8:00 PM this Thursday

60×60 is a project containing 60 compositions from 60 different composers,
\neach composition 60 seconds or less in duration. These 60 recorded pieces
\nare performed in succession without pause for a 1 hour concert. The mission
\nof the 60×60 project and its presenter, Vox Novus, is to expose the greatest
\nnumber of composers and their works to the largest audience possible. 60×60
\ncombines grassroots ideology with cutting-edge methods of presentation and
\ndistribution. Each year the project grows in artistic and distributive
\nscope. Achieving its initiative, the 60×60 promotes contemporary composition
\nacross the globe.<\/p>\n
“60×60 showcases a wealth of brief, contemporary compositions. There are no
\nlive performances, so you can’t really call it a concert. Maybe it would
\nbetter be described as a listening party. … It’s like a Whitman’s sampler
\nof the contemporary new music scene. “
\n– Sound Sampler Greg Haymes, Times Union, Albany New York February 9, 2006<\/p>\n
“60×60 features 60 back-to-back pieces that are each under 60 seconds long,
\neach by a different modern composer. … It’s like channel surfing through
\nexperimental music.”
\nGeeta Dayal, Village Voice, New York, New York March 16-22, 2005 Vol. L NO.

“… The idea of commissioning sixty pieces each a minute long has elements
\nof both ingenuity combined with madness: … A minute can be ample time to
\nexpress a whole gamut of imaginative sounds, or it can be a constraint which
\nforces an artist to isolate what is the most important element of a work.
\nThe point of the project is that it enables an audience to take in and enjoy
\na cross section of different approaches to new music within a reasonable
\nduration. And the purpose of Robert Voisey is to promote new music …”
\n– Ingenuity and madness? Malcolm Miller, Music & Vision, London UK December
