good words

Thanks to the great Steve Smith for his Times review of Claire’s New York debut solo concert at Weill on Thursday night, in which I was honored to take part. The Boulez that night was one for the books, and I’ve never heard Claire do the Bach-Sciarrino transcription of the D-minor Toccata and Fugue better. Much partying afterwards.

showcase

For all you tri-staters: with Claire Chase and harpist Bridget Kibbey, I’m being broadcast this evening at 9 PM on WQXR radio’s Young Artist Showcase. I’m just playing on Claire’s Bach sonata, but there are very nice interview segments with us all and you get to hear Claire and Bridget’s brilliant playing. I also get a plug for Solitary and I talk for a bit about ICE education. After the broadcast, it’ll be archived here. Enjoy!
