About this Artist

Gideon Crevoshay is a singer and composer from the hills of Vermont. He uses the human voice to explore the countless dimensions of sound, language, and improvisation. Crevoshay has studied traditional and ancient forms of singing from around the world, finding inspiration from the wisdom contained within these traditions and how they can inform present ideas of music-making, community, and consciousness. He has toured and performed extensively with many projects including Tenores de Aterúe, Bread and Puppet Theater, Starry Mountain Singers, and Briars of North America. He has been a lead facilitator with the State Department-sponsored international music fellowship, OneBeat, since its inception in 2012, having co-led projects in the Balkans, Turkey, Russia, and Republic of Georgia. Gideon is also a recording artist on the Brooklyn-based Brassland label. He first worked with Meredith Monk in 2009 as part of her Ascension Variations at the Guggenheim Museum in New York.
