Then, there’s also music for the sound art duet of California-based Iranian kamancheh player, composer, and improviser Niloufar Shiri and L.A. based multi-woodwind performer, composer and improviser Isaac Otto. Hear a new duet from flutists Shabaka and André 3000 along with a new single from Shabaka’s latest release, the EP called Possession.
Hear West African superstar Angélique Kidjo and Derrick Hodge and their studio version of “Jerusalema” – a song from the South African producer Master KG that became an international symbol of hope during the pandemic. Plus, listen to new music from the Grammy-nominated choral ensemble Voces8, and their latest nocturnal collection of reflective and transcendent works. Hear a work by German composer Max Richter, arranged for their eight voices. There’s also music from pianist Adam Tendler's commissioning project, 'Inheritances', set in motion when he received an envelope of cash in a parking lot… - Caryn Havlik
