about

Celebrated as a musical “powerhouse” (The Washington Post), Allison Loggins-Hull is a composer, flutist, and producer whose work defies genre, from symphonic music to film scores, chamber and electronic music. Her signature style of composing for orchestra is characterized by unique sonic effects that echo contemporary music production techniques. Her works are profoundly influenced by Black American music, creating a vibrant and kaleidoscopic sonic palette. Thematically, her compositions are deeply rooted in the experiences of community, culture, and life, offering a rich and evocative musical narrative. Her artistic reflections on Black stories, music, and experience, have led to works aligned with Afrofuturism, a movement that imagines alternate realities and a liberated future viewed through the lens of Black cultures. In her newest appointment, she will serve as Resident Artistic Partner to the New Jersey Symphony, for a term beginning in September 2024.

Loggins-Hull co-founded the groundbreaking duo Flutronix, and has performed as an accompanist to major pop acts including Lizzo and Frank Ocean. She has performed on multiple blockbuster film scores and composed the score for Bring Them Back, an award-winning documentary executive produced by Debbie Allen about the legendary dancer Maurice Hines. In 2023, she led an ensemble of flutists at the Met Gala, backing a performance by Lizzo.

This season marks Loggins-Hull’s last of three years as the Lewis Composer Fellow with the Cleveland Orchestra, an engagement that focuses the narratives and history of Cleveland through the prism of one of the world’s great orchestras, culminating in three world premieres.

Loggins-Hull lives in Montclair, NJ with her family. She is represented by Pink Noise Agency, a BIG Arts Group company.
