D-Composed
D-Composed is a chamber music experience that celebrates the works of Black composers and musicians. The concept D-Compressed is a musical exhibition that highlights the many sides of Blackness through the backdrop of a yoga class.
While your body goes through a rhythmic flow of yoga poses, the room will fill with the melodic or sometimes trap-like sounds from a live string quartet. Suddenly you'll hear recognizable songs from artists like Beyoncé & Tyler, The Creator.
Woven within the experience you'll also be introduced to works from modern black composers within the classical world. Walk away from this session not only refreshed, but with a deeper appreciation for the wide range of Black musical expression.
D-Composed was founded and curated by Kori Coleman, musical arrangements are by the artistic director and violist Danielle Taylor, and the class is lead by Asia Jones of Trap Yoga
