New Directions Cello Festivals

The New Directions Cello Festival provides a forum for the exchange of music and ideas in the field of nonclassical and alternative cello. We strive to embrace all styles of music not commonly taught at music schools, especially those that incorporate improvisation. Since our first festival in New York City's Knitting Factory, our annual festival has presented a veritable who's who of nonclassical cello. Some of the cellists who have graced our stages include; David Darling, Eugene Friesen, David Baker, Mark Summer, Jami Sieber, Vincent Courtois, Stephen Katz, Ernst Reijseger, David Eyges, Akua Dixon, Jeffrey McFarland-Johnson, Rufus Cappodocia, Jane Scarpantoni, Chris White, Erik Friedlander, Dawn Avery and Robert Een. You can find out more about and see pictures of individual past festivals by clicking on them.
