Julia Wolfe (born December 18, 1958) is an United States|American composer. She was born in Philadelphia and works in New York. Wolfe's music is rhythmically vigorous, assertive, and often clangorously dissonant. As a composer associated with the downtown music|downtown style of new music she is not averse to drawing on rock and minimalist music|minimalism as primary influences. Her music, however, shows a good deal more rhythmic complexity than is generally found in these genres, hence her music can properly be described as considered postminimalist. In 1987, Wolfe co-founded Bang on a Can together with composers David Lang (composer)|David Lang and Michael Gordon. As of 2003, Julia Wolfe is on the composition faculty of the Manhattan School of Music
