Boutique agency signs its third composer

Boutique agency signs its third composer

Primo Artists has added composer-conductor Joel Thompson to its roster. He joins Wynton Marsalis and Valerie Coleman on the New York-based list.

Primo’s founder Charlotte Lee says: ‘Joel Thompson is a brilliant composer and humanist, and one of the most important and promising voices of our time. His work is bold and socially engaged, telling modern stories in brilliant, stirring, and truthful ways. Embracing America’s multi-layered musical heritage but deeply rooted in the here and now, his writing is not only intelligent, sophisticated, and deeply transcendent, but also startlingly beautiful and everlasting. We look forward to working with Joel, in collaboration with Just a Theory Press, on supporting the breadth of his work as a composer, conductor, pianist, and educator and building on what is undoubtedly going to be a significant career and legacy in the canon of classical music.’
