Music

"Solitary Contemplations," is a poignant collection of self composed solo cello looping compositions born out of the isolation experienced during the pandemic, and is visually enhanced by multimedia artist, Joel Olivas. The compositions in this collection deeply reflect her experiences during this challenging time, capturing a wide range of emotions and thoughts she faced while isolated in a city that was yet to feel like home. Including both original works and reimagined pieces, "Solitary Contemplations" provides a deep and introspective look into Jacobs' experiences of solitude during the pandemic.
