Coleman Itzkoff

Cellist and performer Coleman Itzkoff stands at the intersection of baroque, classical, and new music, contemporary dance, and experimental theater. Whether premiering works by living composers and performing baroque music on historical instruments in the same concert; delivering monologues in a piece of avant-garde dance theater; or composing, arranging, and recording music for the Amazon film Le Bal des Folles, Itzkoff continues to push the boundaries of what it means to be a musician of the 21st century. He has performed in the great halls and festivals of America and abroad, including recent appearances with the Houston, San Diego, and Cincinnati symphonies. He is a member of several ensembles, including the early music ensembles Ruckus and Twelfth Night, and is a founding member of AMOC, the American Modern Opera Company.
