<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cP34opPOkD8>Humbly for Sunday
An embarrassment of riches, I (Robert Voisey) have had a bunch of
performances of which I am truly grateful. This Sunday my work Vermillion
Sand <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cP34opPOkD8>at Pensacola
COMPOSERfest XX. A fantastic festival I am proud to be a part of for their
20th festival.
Pensacola COMPOSERfest XX, is a regional showcase of contemporary music
taking place on Sunday, September 28 at 2:30 p.m. in the Ashmore Fine Arts
Auditorium at Pensacola State College (1000 College Blvd.). The concert is
free and open to the public.
Now in its 20th year, Pensacola COMPOSERfest brings together composers and
performers from across the Gulf Coast and beyond to share original works
ranging from traditional chamber pieces to cutting-edge multimedia. This
year’s festival will feature 13 composers and seven world premieres,
offering audiences an exciting cross-section of today’s most adventurous
music.
Vermillion Sand is a fixed media composition of evocative soundscapes and
micro-sampled textures reflecting his signature approach of merging
experimental techniques with an immersive, almost cinematic sonic
narrative. Known internationally as the founder of the groundbreaking
projects 60x60, Fifteen-Minutes-of-Fame, and Composer’s Voice, Voisey has
been hailed by The New York Times for creating “madness that makes the
cultural world go round.”

[image: MUSICA PROHIBITA]Vox Novus Presents MUSICA PROHIBITA
at Christ & St. Stephen’s Church:
A Global Musical Journey of Memory and Resistance
Vox Novus is proud to welcome violinist Diana Jipa and pianist Ștefan
Doniga to Christ & St. Stephen’s Church for the New York stop of their
world-spanning MUSICA PROHIBITA recital tour. This powerful program marks
the 80th anniversary of the end of the Holocaust and the Second World War,
using music to honor the resilience of the human spirit and the enduring
force of culture in the face of oppression.
Violinist Diana Jipa and pianist Ștefan Doniga will, for the third time in
three consecutive years, journey around the globe on a recital tour—setting
a new world precedent. As with their previous tours around the Earth, this
year’s project is organized by the INNOVARTE Cultural Association, financed
by the Romanian Cultural Institute through the Cantemir Program, and
supported by Radio Romania Musical and the Gândul Press Group, along with
the backing of Romanian diplomatic missions in the countries visited and
local partners: the Austro-Romanian Society in Vienna, the University of
Nairobi, Alliance Française Nairobi, the DOINA Association of Romanians in
Brisbane and Auckland, the SUONAVOCE Australia Music Management and
Production Agency, Vox Novus New York, and Manhattan Neighborhood Network
Studios.
For the third consecutive year, these acclaimed artists have set out to
perform around the globe, carrying a message of remembrance and hope
through music. Their 2025 tour visits four continents and includes cities
of profound symbolic importance: Geneva, Vienna, Nairobi, Brisbane, and New
York—all home to United Nations offices dedicated to the defense of human
rights and the fight against persecution.
MUSICA PROHIBITA invites audiences to reflect on the way culture becomes
“the last refuge and the most comprehensive repository of human values,” a
space where art transforms into an authentic form of resistance. Through
music once silenced by censorship and oppression, this program reminds us
that creativity can transcend even the darkest chapters of history.
The New York performance will take place:
*Wednesday, October 1, 2025 – 7:30 PMChrist & St. Stephen’s Church – 120
West 69th Street, New York, NY*
This landmark concert is presented by Vox Novus in collaboration with the
INNOVARTE Cultural Association and supported by the Romanian Cultural
Institute through the Cantemir Program, Radio Romania Musical, the Gândul
Press Group, and numerous international partners, including the Permanent
Mission of Romania to the United Nations.
Join us for an evening where music speaks as resistance, memory, and
hope—linking past to present, and New York to the world.
