Noted as "One of the great foundation improvisors of America" (--LaDonna Smith, Improvisor Journal), JILL BURTON has recently relocated to the Hudson Valley and delightedly resumed performance activities after a long hiatus in Florida. Current and recent collaborators include Jane Scarpantoni, Viv Corringham, Fred Lonberg-Holm, Chris Cochrane, Andrew Drury, David First, Jane Rigler, Al Margolis, Walter Wright, Brian Charles, and Michael Bisio.
Composer/performer DAVID FIRST is perhaps best known for his longstanding “Dave’s Waves Sonic Restaurant” audio/video installation which has been presented in Berlin, Belgium, Moscow, The Netherlands, and since 2018 has been open to the public over a dozen times at the Sunview Luncheonette (Greenpoint). First was recently named a New Music USA Creator Fund Awardee for 2025. He has also been the recipient of the Herb Alpert/Ragdale Award for Music Composition for 2019 and a 2019 NYFA/NYSCA Fellowship.
Internationally recognized JANE RIGLER, flutist/composer, weaves movement, languages, and ancestral songs into immersive soundworlds. She thrives at residencies like Civitella Ranieri, The Fulbright Commission, US-Japan Friends Commission, Montalvo, (etc) that promote her collaborative nature and interdisciplinary Deep Listening® based community projects.
