Jim Fox
Born: 9th April 1953, Indianapolis, Indiana, United States
Nationality: American
Jim Fox is an American composer, and also founder, director, producer, and designer of the "small but influential" recording label Cold Blue Music.
His compositions, often for small and unusual instrumentations (e.g., The City the Wind Swept Away is scored for piano, solo strings, two trombones and two bass trombones), are slow, creating tension and interest through unpredictable change within a generally repetitive idiom. Fox studied composition with Phil Winsor at DePaul University, Chicago. He also studied composition as a postgraduate with Barney Childs and taught electronic music, orchestration, and acoustics at the University of Redlands. Along with Childs and Elliott Schwartz, Fox is a co-editor of the 1998 expanded edition of the anthology Contemporary Composers on Contemporary Music, published by Da Capo Press.
