Professor Lynch was selected for “7 for 7 by 7: A Jazz Work Exploring Distance, Interaction and Chance.” The work features seven performances for seven minutes by seven musicians totaling 343 new pieces for a jazz septet exploring the nature of interaction at a distance.
“I am thrilled by this recognition and support of stellar Frost School professors,” stated Dean Shelly Berg. “These new works will be inspiring and brilliant and add significantly to the musical repertoire. On behalf of everyone at Frost – a big congratulations to Professors Kojs and Lynch!”
Inspired by the resilience and creativity displayed by artists during the pandemic, the Knight Foundation recently announced their Knight New Work 2020 grants. Both professors were among a diverse group of 18-Miami based artists and arts organizations pushing the boundaries on how the performing arts are created and experienced.
