Jordan Young Artist Statement: “In my artistic practice, I aim to communicate constructions of illustrations of sonic allusions that challenge literal or figurative archetypes. Through music composition, settings are reimagined, characters are reconstructed, stories are deconstructed and stereotypes are disarmed. Inspirations towards this compositional philosophy include Duke Ellington's Concert of Sacred Music, Second Sacred Concert, Ornette Coleman's Law Years, All My Life, Wayne Shorter's Unknown Soldier, Aung San Suu Kyi, Prometheus Unbound and many more. With this research, I composed the score for the 2022 production of Broken Box Mime Company's “Asks Why”—a play presenting Critical Race Theory to families.”
