  1. New piece: Nico Muhly restrained all the raw danger of his 2006 debut for the score of David Hockney's Bigger & Closer — and in that restraint, something closer to architecture emerges. On minimalism, Renaissance counterpoint, and Hockney's revolt against single-point perspective.

  2. Le coffret contient 27 CDs, 1 livret recueil d'essais sur la musique de #SteveReich par #RobertHurwitz (président de #Nonesuch), #MichaelTilsonThomas (chef d'orchestre), #RussellHartenberger (percussionniste dans le Steve Reich and Musicians), #JudithSherman (ingénieure du son) et #NicoMuhly, plus un guide complet œuvre par œuvre, et 1 livret avec le contenu, les textes et les crédits de chaque pièce.

    Si vous ne connaissez pas Reich, je vous recommande #MusicFor18Musicians, sa pièce par laquelle j'ai découvert le compositeur, sur recommandation de #LaetitiaSadier, chanteuse de #Stereolab.

  3. DUKE / Duchess Shoppe

    Yesterday I donned chauffeur cap—taking a fella in town for Music Now Festival down to Cincinnati.

    Worried what we might talk about for an hour in transit, my fears abated on instant when I asked if he lived in Brooklyn. He was from New York and all… A gasp and resounding no, he said “Everyone in Brooklyn has projects.”

    Which from what I know, is absolutely true.

    I like spicy conversation though, and this fit the bill.

    When we pulled into the Duke gas station, he noted the sign, “Velvet Cone? I think that’s a lesbian bar in Lexington. (insert beat) I’ve been there.”

    Sidenote: My previous entry on the MusicNow festival from 2006. I’ll be back down for opening night this evening. I’m told it will be excellent. Here’s the full line-up.
