Christopher Tignor: Performing Artist in New York

About Christopher Tignor

Christopher Tignor is a composer and violinist working in the neoclassical and experimental edge of electro-acoustic music. In live settings, he treats the violin as both instrument and signal, building pieces where computers sit alongside acoustic sound rather than replacing it. His record-release show for *Bleeding Past The Edges* brings that approach to Public Records in New York City, with Julia Kent also on the bill; Tignor has also written and recorded string arrangements in collaboration with other artists. The work favors structure and tonal detail over spectacle.
