ILLUMINATIONS drops TOMORROW!Hi Everyone!
ILLUMINATIONS will be released TOMORROW, Friday April 20! Everyone sounds fantastic on the recording - and we can't wait for you to hear it! For those of you who pre-ordered digital downloads of the album, those should be ready for you tomorrow afternoon! You will be receiving an email with a link and password for you to download your copies. As for the physical copies, because of my touring schedule, those won't be mailed out until May 1 - my profuse apologies! The delay is just a result of some logistical complications due to my concert calendar, and I thank you for your patience! Of course - the album will also be on all of the streaming services as of tomorrow, too (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube in certain countries, etc.), so also please give it a listen there, in the meantime! Again - we cannot thank all of you enough for your very generous support of this album. Without your support - none of this would have gotten off the ground, and we wouldn't be able to share this beautiful music with the world. We hope you are as thrilled about this album as we are! Many thanks! |

Illuminations Update 1Hi Friends -
Here's the latest update on our progress with Illuminations! Myra, the Telegraph Quartet and I headed into the studio to record the Debussy and Fauré cycles Tuesday and Wednesday, up at Skywalker Sound! The experience was amazing - both days went very smoothly, and we are all excited about the music we recorded. Our producer, Marlan, kept us on schedule and was a fantastic presence in the studio, keeping our energy up and our musicality focused. It was a fantastic couple of days of music-making. The next step for this project will happen next week in the New York City area. The final song cycle of this album, Britten's Les Illuminations, will be recorded Friday, October 6 with The Knights at Drew University just outside of New York City. Drew has an amazing concert hall, where many groups have made recordings - it has a fantastic acoustic, and will be the perfect space for us to record this incredible song cycle. If you are in the NYC area - we will be giving a LIVE performance of the cycle on Thursday night, October 5 at the BRIC, as part of the Knights' residency. The program will also include Mendelssohn's Italian Symphony. If you are near Brooklyn, please come by and hear us do a live run of the piece before we head into the recording studio the next day! Tickets and info are HERE. In other news, the campaign for this project still going strong, with almost $3,000 raised! We have two more weeks to reach our goal, so if you haven't had a chance to donate, please help us keep this wonderful momentum going! Remember: Each of these donations will be matched by our anonymous donor through a matching grant, so your dollars will have double the impact! To all of you who have already donated: thank you a thousand times over! We are forever grateful for your support! If you've not had a chance yet, please consider making a contribution, and help us reach our campaign goal by the October 14 deadline! |
