JAY CAMPBELL

---

​Currently the only musician ever to receive two Avery Fisher Career Grants — in 2016 as a soloist and in 2019 as a member of the JACK Quartet — cellist Jay Campbell has brought his eclectic artistic interests both as a performer and curator to the New York Philharmonic, Deutsche-Symphonie Orchester, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Seattle Symphony, Ojai Festival, Lucerne Festival and many others. Deeply committed to collaborative music, Jay is a member of the JACK Quartet, as well as the Junction Trio with violinist Stefan Jackiw and composer/pianist Conrad Tao, multidisciplinary artist collective AMOC, and frequently works with visionary composers and performers like Helmut Lachenmann, Patricia Kopatchinskaja, John Zorn, Tyshawn Sorey, and many more from his own generation. When not playing the cello, he's most likely to be found in a restaurant in Queens, full of food and regrets.
