Stay Thirsty Magazine interviews with:
Joseph C Phillips Jr
"I’ve always said just because something has been done doesn’t mean that’s how it always has to be done. I think my life as a Black male in America has comfortably prepared me to live in a musical world that I am simultaneously both inside and outside of… and a freedom to use whatever style or genre as inspiration, incorporating them into my own personal voice, to create my own compositions."
https://staythirstymagazine.blogspot.com/p/joseph-c-phillips-jr-conversation.html
and
Rebecca L Hargrove
“I hope this work enlightens audiences to this aspect of the Black experience through a musical lens. Police brutality is not new to our society, but for many years it has been a Black issue instead of a human issue. I hope that our audience can gain empathy and understanding through the loss of our children and do what they can to help change our society.
If I hadn’t been exposed to trailblazing artists like Leontyne Price, Jessye Norman, Kathleen Battle, and Denyce Graves, I wouldn't have fathomed being an opera singer. I hope that one day some young Black singer can see me and know that she belongs here too. This is why representation matters.”

FIRST LOOK!: On Wednesday December 16th, 2020 I will broadcast a public table read from my forthcoming opera cycle 1619. The first opera in the cycle I'm currently working on is called "So Far Behind Because of Then" and you can read more about the 1619 opera cycle, as well as specifically information on "So Far Behind Now Because of Then,"including a link to the video of the table read here. The table read will feature sopranos Rebecca L Hargrove and Ariadne Grief as well as a chorus of actors (Arthur Lazdale, Stacey Linnartz, Peter Rini, Jeremy Rishe, Amy Lynn Stewart) reading three scenes from the opera; their will also be a Q & A with the other libretto writers for other operas in the cycle (Meshell Ndegeocello, Joseph C Phillips Jr, Kelley Rourke, Carl Hancock Rux). The broadcast will be available from December 16, 2020 until January 16, 2021.

The second video single for The Grey Land is out today! "The People get Tired of Dying" is scene 1 from the monoopera, with music by Joseph C Phillips Jr and performed by Numinous and video/story by Malik Isasis.
"My composition connects contemporary life's struggles with those of the ancestors--as Ta-Nehisi Coates describes as 'the vastness of black people across space-time.'"
I had already composed "The People Get Tired of Dying" when I approached director/writer Malik Isasis about creating a film using the themes I was exploring in The Grey Land. The visuals and story for this opening scene are a powerful overture to what is to come (and bookends with the final scene of the opera).

Numinous recording of my monoopera The Grey Land, order at Bandcamp
The Grey Land can be ordered at Bandcamp!
The Grey Land is "a story of a Black mother trying to survive the reality in this land that doesn’t fully see her continued hope: that the great American experiment will one day become a belonging place where anyone can dream of 'stillness and stars' free from fear and want; a place where the beautiful promise of happiness, liberty, and life may yet manifest true to finally include her family too." The Grey Land is at once intimately personal and an incisive commentary for our time as it examines "humanity and identity through the lens of the intractable triumvirate of race, class, and power in American society."
As far back as 2011 I was beginning to read and research for an opera I wanted to create that dealt with the endemic injustice in the American system. And even as I was trying to finish the Changing Same album production in 2014, in preparation for the birth of a first child (because of course I wasn't going to have much time once the baby arrived!), I was already deep into researching & thinking about what the opera was going to be when the events of Ferguson, Missouri happened in that beautiful summer of nesting in upstate NY. My conflicting emotions—joy of anticipation married to the anxiety about the world our future child would inhabit—moved me to want to more directly address the systemic issues long plaguing the US, particularly for Black and brown people--and this was truly when The Grey Land opera concept was born.
This is our fourth Numinous album, the second for New Amsterdam Records. The album art and design is by Brock Lefferts.

1619 opera cycle
I am honored to be one of the 2020 grantees for the Brooklyn Arts Fund for my next opera cycle, 1619. The Brooklyn Arts Council grant will allow me to begin work on the opera! Initially inspired by “The Case for Reparations” by Ta-Nehisi Coates and by the New York Times project, each opera in the cycle will reflect the predacity of American life—how this country "begins in Black plunder and white democracy, two features that are not contradictory but complementary" and how "virtually every institution with some degree of history in America, be it public, be it private, has a history of extracting wealth and resources out of the African-American community...that behind all of that oppression was actually theft." But the operas will also highlight the very human stories of Black and Brown joy, love, and resiliency in the face of that oppression, as well as the larger systemic forces of class and power and wealth that affect all levels and people in our society.
Each of the operas in the cycle will feature film and dance choreography and, like the 1619 Project itself, hope to show a number of consistent themes through a series of wide-ranging historical fictional narratives that will reflect the story of America. While I will write a couple of the librettos myself, I’ve also begun assembling a group of writers/poets (so far Kelley Rourke, Carl Hancock Rux, Meshell Ndegeocello) who will also be writing librettos for specific operas in the cycle as well.
The first table read from one of the operas in the cycle will be held on Zoom in mid-December (check the "News" section for details) and is sponsored, in part, by the Greater New York Arts Development Fund of the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, administered by Brooklyn Arts Council (BAC).

The first video single for The Grey Land is out today! "The Sunken Place" is scene 12 from the monoopera, with music by Joseph C Phillips Jr and performed by Numinous and video by Xuan Zhang www.xuanfilms.com
"The sunken place" is this metaphor for the system that is suppressing the freedom of Black people."--Jordan Peele
As I was developing my monoopera The Grey Land, a story "that reflects today's truth: the unrelenting systemic injustice Black and brown communities endure," I came across director Jordan Peele's quote above, and I just knew I needed to find a place for his "sunken place" concept in my opera.
The visuals in Jordon Peele's Get Out film so beautifully depict the unmoored and unsettled feelings of one's constant metaphorical swimming in an atmosphere of oppression, and was something I wanted to capture some of in composing the music. I contacted visual artist Xuan Zhang (www.xuanfilms.com) and she came up with images that are both evocative and poignant, perfectly setting up the mood for this penultimate scene from The Grey Land.
The Grey Land album is released November 20, 2020 on New Amsterdam Records and you can pre-order at: numinous.bandcamp.com

Premiere of my new opera Four Freedoms
In President Roosevelt's State of the Union speech from 1941 he outlined "Four Freedoms" that everyone should experience and live, "everywhere in the world": Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Worship, Freedom from Want, Freedom from Fear. Those ideals still resonated almost 80 years later as I wrote the words and story for my opera Four Freedoms, which I based on four contemporary topics (voter disenfranchisement, worship and discrimination, immigration, and climate change) that all tie together to illuminate how far away as a country, and a world, we are from living up to those ideals.

The year 2020 is the 20th anniversary of Numinous
Numinous began in October 2000, with my first rehearsal, and took some years to develop into its present instrumentation. But the idea of having some kind of large ensemble that would play music that wasn't easily classifiable, was a concept developing in my mind almost four years before that first rehearsal. It really has been a long and winding road full of wonderful successes and some disappointments; but whether the experiences were positive or less than stellar, it all was full of much music I'm happy and proud to have created, performed with wonderful musicians and friends! And while there's still much to come with Numinous in future years, throughout this year I thought it would be fun to look back on twenty years of making music with Numinous. You can follow along on Instagram and Twitter (can follow me below and/or use #numinous20), and I might even throw in a few blog posts for old-time sake!

The Grey Land is a monoopera, which through the lens of one Black mother's experiences navigating American society with her son, explores universal themes of humanity and identity through the intractable triumvirate of race, class, and power. The Grey Land ruminates and comments more specifically on the larger longstanding systemic societal, economic, and cultural issues the recent spate of police shootings and protests have brought to the wider public consciousness. The Grey Land is made possible by a grant from the American Composers Forum with funds provided by the Jerome Foundation and, in addition, is also supported by New Music USA. The composition will be recorded and released on New Amsterdam Records in Fall 2020.
