Joy Guidry
Radical self-love, compassion, laughter and the drive to promote and amplify Black art-makers and noise-makers are at the core of Joy Guidry’s work. The New York City-based bassoonist, composer, and activist excels in many spheres, with performances hailed by the San Diego Tribune as “lyrical and haunting… hair-raising and unsettling…” Joy is not only a versatile and acclaimed bassoonist, but they are also an improviser and composer of experimental and daring new works that proclaim Joy’s love of storytelling. In all aspects of his work, Joy is supporting, hiring and promoting Black artists within their practice. In honoring their ancestors and those who came before them Joy’s compositions channel their inner child.
