Immunity
Joshua Roman
Release Date: October 4, 2024
Immunity is an intimate musical exploration of cellist Joshua Roman’s life-altering experience of ongoing Long COVID, with music ranging from J.S. Bach to George Crumb, and Caroline Shaw to Roman’s own compositions. This debut solo album portrays an emotional journey through music, as the cellist confronts the impact of the illness that nearly ended his career and ultimately discovers a deeper connection to what's most important in life.
Joshua Roman
Joshua Roman is a cello soloist and composer, hailed for his “effortlessly expressive tone… and playful zest for exploration” (New York Times), as well as his “extraordinary technical and musical gifts" and “blend of precision and almost improvisatory freedom… that goes straight to the heart" (San Francisco Chronicle). His genre-bending programs have grown out of an “enthusiasm for musical evolution that is as contagious as his love for the classics" (Seattle Times), and he has collaborated with artists including Yo-Yo Ma, Edgar Meyer, DJ Spooky, Tony- winner/MacArthur Genius Bill T. Jones, Grammy Award-winning East African vocalist Somi, and Tony Award-nominated actor Anna Deavere Smith.
