OUR FEATURED ARTIST AT NEW AGE CD IS: JILL HALEY
Jill Haley Oboist/ English horn player/ pianist/composer
“Haley conveys peacefulness and serenity through long held notes and tonal rising melodies. She has excellent breath control and the warmth of her tone, especially on the English horn, is inviting.” – Megan Woodard – from The International Double Reed Journal, 12/23.
Jill performs on oboe and English horn in both improvisational and classical settings as well as composing her own music inspired by the beauty of our National Parks. She has been an Artist in Residence at 10 National Parks over the last decade which has afforded her the opportunity to live in a park while creating music about the park. Jill has released several recordings of National Park music on her own label which have been placed on numerous radio and music services, including several tracks on satellite radio, Sirius/ XM Radio. These recordings are available at Amazon.com and on numerous digital services.
Her National Park music with video is shared with audiences throughout PA. Her most recent release, Alaskan Soundscapes, will have a premiere performance at the Miller Center at RACC in Reading, Pa on Sunday, November 3, 2024.
Jill is also an artist on the Spotted Peccary Record Label creating ambient music with the founder of this label, Deborah Martin. The duo has released 2 recordings with a 3rd planned for release in 2025.
In the last few years, she has begun to have arrangements created for some of her National Park music to be performed as a soloist with orchestras. Three National Park Suites as well as a Suite of music drawn from her pandemic project, “Wrapped in Light,” have been performed by the York, PA Symphony and Berks Sinfonietta.
She continues to share English horn and oboe lines on projects at Imaginary Road Studio, with production by Will Ackerman and Tom Eaton.
