After the Long Play festival, we return to releasing a new video every week from our Messiaen "Quartet for the End of Time" release. We're at Part 5 featuring our cellist Ashley Bathgate and pianist Karl Larson with artwork and video by Xuan. You can watch the entire piece for free on our YouTube channel! Link in bio.
Finished our first year as Artists in Residence at Duke University with a closing concert last night. Appreciative to work with these fantastic composers and faculty. Concert photo and photo with all the graduate composers and engineer Brooks Fredrickson.
At Long Play, you’ll hear… @anzuquartet , a collaboration of musicians from Bang on a Can, Eighth Blackbird, Mivos Quartet and Bearthoven, play the New York premiere Ken Thomson’s “Uneasy” (Cantaloupe Music 2025), then add to their forces to play Thomson’s 2018 clarinet quintet “Pall.” (Also happy release day, check out their new @cantaloupeny disc featuring Messiaen’s Quatuor pour la fin du temps!)
Come to Brooklyn for this and more than 70 other concerts, April 30-May 3! longplayfestival.org for tickets and more
