This evening pianist Beth Levin gave a deeply felt and brilliantly executed premiere of Jeremy Gill’s Encomium of John Dowland.
Looking forward to learning this piece myself…

George Crumb’s 90th at Sawdust
George Crumb’s 90th birthday celebration concert took place this evening at National Sawdust in Brooklyn. His 90th birthday — can you believe it?
I was invited to view the premiere of a short documentary, experience the concert, and get introduced to their brand new Meyer Sound Constellation audio system.
Believe it or not, there are 102 magical speakers (86 full range + 16 subs) hiding behind those gorgeous wall and ceiling panels. Each one of them has me dreaming of possibilities…
The concert was a STUNNING success.
(I’ve been asked to mix and master the concert audio for the upcoming archival videos and I’ll update this post with links as soon as they’re available online.)

After Rochberg: NYC Preparations
I spent this last week in New York with my good friend and colleague Jeremy Gill as we prepared for the premiere of After Rochberg.
In many ways this was a fabulous way to end 2018 — not the least of which is that this concert represented several milestones for my work on the Isomer Project. We worked hard this week. Even so, I got to visit with old friends…
taste test incredible restaurants…
try new cocktails…
rummage through bookstores in search of rare scores…
and take in early-morning NYC views.
Amsterdam Concerts
Top-shelf music in Amsterdam.
Concerts at the Concertgebouw (with Jaap van Zweden), Muziekgebouw aan ‘t IJ, and tickets to the Liegti Festival. Who could ask for anything more?
