60x60 is an hour performance that highlights 60 composers who have composed
works 60 seconds or less.

60 one-minute works by 60 different composers/ are presented back to back
without pause for one hour.  Each work is synchronized with an analog clock
in order for the audience keep track to which composer they are listening to
in the 60x60 hour; the clock also guides the listener to where they are in
the composer's minute.

60x60 Director Rob Voisey has been described as "mad" by the New York Times
and publications around the world, the "kind of madness that makes the
cultural world go round." "Composer and electronic music impresario Robert
Voisey devised the 60x60 concept so large numbers of composers could bring
their work to audiences in a portable, palatable, and decidedly
unconventional format. Since the series' inception in 2003, Vox Novus -
Voisey's organization dedicated to the promotion of contemporary composers
and their work - has solicited 60x60 submissions by composers at all
professional levels worldwide and presented its hour-long recordings at
concerts in cities from Brooklyn to Bucharest..This digitized,
compartmentalized, sound-bite format is a tantalizing new way to experience
widely varied and eclectic electronic music. And 60x60's longevity and
international acclaim show that Vox Novus' innovative strategy to attract
audiences and encourage composers has actually worked" - Alexandra Jones,
Classical Voice of North Carolina
