About
Brett Carson is a composer, pianist, improviser, and occasional theater artist based in the San Francisco Bay Area. He has performed internationally in the realms of new music, free improvisation, jazz, and rock, working with a wide variety of musicians, including Bill Baird, Brian Baumbusch, Nicolas Collins, George Lewis, Nicole Mitchell, Roscoe Mitchell, Bill Noertker, Zeena Parkins, Rent Romus, and William Winant. As of 2019, he performs as the pianist for the influential jazz unit the Art Ensemble of Chicago. His compositional work, which has been described as "fascinatingly intense" (Stephen Smoliar, SF Classical Voice), draws inspiration from an eclectic diversity of musical influences, along with the writings of Western esotericism, surrealist poetry, and visionary science fiction. His work frequently features original texts detailing his own personal mythos. His latest project "The Killing Jar" was released in May of 2021, and he is currently working on a new song cycle based on the work of Dutch microscopist Antoni van Leeuwenhoek, to be premiered in September, 2022....
