Joe Phillips
A new work to be performed by youth and school orchestras, with support from the Sphinx Venture Fund.
The compositions of Joseph C Phillips Jr are not limited or defined by any one genre but rather are an amalgamation, transmuted into a singular and individual style. Phillips calls his style, mixed music; the term is inspired by mixed race people who have traits and characteristics that come from each individual parent, from the melding of the two, and their own uniqueness. Mixed music is an organic fusing of various elements from many different influences, forming compositions that are personal, different, and new.
