"The idea — 60 new dance pieces are performed to 60 new pieces of music, each lasting no more than 60 seconds — is quite mad. But it’s this kind of madness that makes the cultural world go round..."

As a presenter and producer of new music, Robert Voisey is the Artistic Director of the 60x60 project, Co-Director of the Composer’s Voice Concert series, Vice President of Programs for the Living Music Foundation, and Founder of Vox Novus. Producing and presenting over 100 concerts in more than 10 countries around the world, he seeks innovative and creative approaches to promote the music of today's composers. "The idea of commissioning sixty pieces each a minute long has elements of both ingenuity combined with madness,” (Malcolm Miller, Music & Vision) Robert Voisey’s 60x60 concept has been hailed by the New York Times as the “kind of madness that makes the cultural world go round” (Roslyn Sulcas, New York Times)


Eclectic by nature, 60x60 Dance offers an unmatched diversity of aesthetics, styles and techniques, making for a fast-speed, exhilarating event which never ceases to surprise. Music selections have been culled from an international pool of emerging and established composers, and then assigned to an equally varied mix of choreographers assembled by Jeramy Zimmerman. During the event, the compositions will be played in succession over loud speakers. A large analog clock keeps track of time, with each minute marking the end of one dance and the beginning of another.

Jeramy Zimmerman/CatScratch Theatre is committed to bringing performance to unexpected places, thus helping the audience member to see her or his world in a slightly different way. Jeramy Zimmerman is a co-founder and the director of CatScratch Theatre. Her work for CatScratch Theatre has been performed on stages and in non-traditional places such as the Staten Island Ferry, In front of the New York City Stock Exchange, the Kennedy Center's Millennium Stage and Chateau Cazals in southeastern France.


"The project began as an electroacoustic “tape” concert featuring 1-minute works by 60 composers in one hour. Since then, they have promoted the work of more than 1000 composers in 60X60 concerts all over the world. The project’s director Robert Voisey and choreographer Jeramy Zimmerman are expanding the concept to include dance in the mix: 60 choreographers are presenting 60-second works in 60-second pieces by 60 composers. That sounds a lot more complicated than it is! We’re ecstatic at the idea of witnessing so many original pieces of work, dance and music, in such a little amount of time. Think of it as a night of artistic hors d’oeuvres!" - by Stephan Paschalides- TRENDTREKKING
