Join us for our CoPA Artist Hour featuring members of the College of Performing Arts Music community. This week we will be joined by bassoonist and CoPA faculty member Rebekah Heller and sound artist/composer and School of Jazz faculty member Fay Victor.
Praised for her โflairโ and โdeftly illuminatedโ performances by The New York Times, bassoonist Rebekah Heller is a uniquely dynamic soloist, collaborative artist, improviser, curator, and educator.

Hellerโs professional journey epitomizes a hybrid career path that celebrates robust and diverse interests. Her passion for commissioning and performing new music, coupled with her expertise as a pedagogue, organizational dreamer, fundraiser, and conscientious curator, makes her uniquely positioned to guide early-career artists and arts organizations that seek to forge their own way. Rebekah has been a faculty member at the College of Performing Arts at The New School since 2019....
