Биография
Jacob Elkin's orchestral piece Summer Haze was played in Brasília on 1 August 2023 by the Orquestra Sinfônica do Teatro Nacional Claudio Santoro, at the Tonal Composers Festival. Based in New York, he works as much with microtonal writing and the placing of electronic sound in a space as with the brass instruments he plays, trombone, euphonium and tuba, and he has given first performances of solo and ensemble pieces by other living composers. His recordings have appeared on WAW and Ablaze, and he has taught brass at the United Nations International School and directed music at Regis High School.
