Ingram Marshall: A Connecticut Hippie In California

Published: Oct. 5, 2015, 4 a.m.

Ingram Marshall is often called a California Minimalist, a title which, while not exactly geographically accurate, allies him with a loose cadre of artists writing ambient, visceral scores. It's a title he'll happily wear, but it only vaguely describes they art he makes. Ingram is kind of a throwback - a free-thinker making music on his own, music that accesses a deep, emotional place. His music leaves the listener gutted, keyed into something beyond consciousness. It's ambience with a purpose, slowly inevitably unfolding towards a climax.\n---\nAbout the podcast:\nMeet the Composer is a Peabody Award-winning podcast that takes listeners into the minds and creative processes of the composers making some of the most innovative, compelling, and breathtakingly beautiful music today.\nFollow Meet the Composer\xa0on Twitter:\xa0@MeettheComposerLike Meet the Composer\xa0on Facebook:\xa0www.facebook.com/meetthecomposer\n---\nQ2 Music is WQXR, New York's multi-platform home for dynamic modern\xa0music.
