RESIDENCY COMMISSIONS
In addition to giving performance opportunities to young artists, The Jazz Gallery also has a strong track record of nurturing compositional talent, having commissioned new work annually since 2002 which evolved into the Residency Commissions program, which grants talented composers and bandleaders the resources to work on large-scale projects that will have enduring and transformative effects on their creative development.
We encourage commissioned artists to think outside their usual box and deeply explore their creative ideas and take risks by removing financial and space constraints.
To this end, Residency Commission recipients receive a commissioning fee, as well as unrestricted access to our performance space for an entire season to compose, rehearse, and record during off-hours, culminating in the premiere of their new work later in the season.
Since 2002, our Commissions program has supported 52 artists’ creations of 55 new works, many of which have since been commercially released and several of which have been nominated for GRAMMY Awards; however, our focus for the program is not the end products. We are more concerned with providing the process for the artists, most of whom are receiving a commission for the first time in their careers.
The Jazz Gallery Residency Commissions are made possible in part by the grant from the Jerome Foundation with additional support from the New York State Council on the Arts, New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, Howard Gilman Foundation, and the Cheswatyr Foundation.
