𝕋𝕙𝕦𝕞𝕓𝕡𝕣𝕚𝕟𝕥 | Out Now!

The live cast recording from LA Opera’s production of Kamala Sankaram’s acclaimed opera Thumbprint tells the story of Mukhtar Mai, a young Pakistani woman who overcame incredible odds to seek justice. A first of its kind, the score melds the South Asian systems of raga and tala, the sounds of qawwali and Bollywood, and the structures and vocal fireworks of Western opera. This sold-out run was the final production where Kamala Sankaram also sang the role of Mukhtar, praised by the LA Times as “a rousing double threat, a compelling singer… You don’t leave the theater unimpressed or unmoved.”

Music by Kamala Sankaram

𝔻𝕠𝕘 𝔻𝕒𝕪𝕤 | Out Now!

David T. Little and Royce Vavrek’s Dog Days is a haunting, post-apocalyptic tale of survival that redefines modern opera. This groundbreaking American classic proves “beyond any doubt that opera has both a relevant present and a bright future” (The New York Times). Praised as “stunning in its ferocity” (Alex Ross), Dog Days is out now on Bright Shiny Things—more powerful and timely than ever.

Seven Days | New York Times Review
“5 Classical Music Albums You Can Listen To Right Now”

🎹 “Now available in Pedja Muzijevic’s scrupulous and thoughtful recording, the piece can be experienced either day by day or as a self-standing, 21-movement cycle. I tried both and found different things to marvel at in this openly expressive music.”

𝕊𝕖𝕧𝕖𝕟 𝔻𝕒𝕪𝕤 | Out Now!

SEVEN DAYS is a contemplative cycle of 21 pieces for solo piano with titles corresponding to the days of the week — Monday Morning, Monday Afternoon, Monday Evening, Tuesday Morning, Tuesday Afternoon, etc. The listener can simply listen as one would to any regular album, or listen at the times proscribed by the movement titles — creating an experience in line with old ideas of ritualized listening (like the liturgical tradition of singing the hours). Each piece explores a multilayered ambient sound world, imbued with the everyday expansiveness of time.

The music of SEVEN DAYS was originally presented as a downloadable mobile app by the 92nd Street Y (92NY).

🟥ad tendo🟥

Simone Porter’s debut solo violin album ad tendo is inspired by philosopher Simone Weil’s insight that “Absolutely unmixed attention is prayer.” The Latin root of the word “attention,” ad tendo translated means “I stretch toward.” Each work on the album animates this stretch by exploring how different types of attention can yield greater spiritual alignment. ad tendo features works by Andrew Norman, Esa-Pekka Salonen, Hildegard von Bingen/ Olivia Marckx, Heinrich Biber, and the premiere recording of Reena Esmail’s Drishti (दृष्टि). ♥️
