JIM FOX
Jim Fox’s music has been commissioned and performed by ensembles and soloists throughout the U.S. and presented at the Monday Evening Concerts, New Music America, Real Art Ways, Wires, the SCREAM Festival, the CalArts Contemporary Music Festival, the Ventura Chamber Music Festival, Podewil, the Schindler House/SASSAS, the Ear Inn, L.A.C.E., and many similar venues. He has also scored a few feature films. Often quiet, slow, lyrical, and unassuming in character, Fox's music has been described by critics as "austere" and "sensuous" and "suffused with a beautiful sadness." It has been recorded on the Cold Blue, CRI, Advance, Grenadilla, Raptoria Caam, and Citadel labels (and is forthcoming on the Italian label Ants). Fox is the founder and director of the Cold Blue Music record label.
