Pulse

21st Annual BMI Jazz Composers Workshop concert review

Since all of the Pulse members are alumni of the BMI Jazz Composers Workshop, I thought I'd share my thoughts about last night's concert.

Here are three reviews I posted on my blog from performances or events I went to last week, including one that featured a future Pulse collaborator Take Dance Company.

New York's River to River celebration of the Poets House and the music of Meredith Monk, a review

Hudson Opera House

Here's the posting from my blog about Saturday's Pulse performance:

This Saturday night, May 30, my other group, Pulse, will be performing our Songs from the Hudson River project at the historic Hudson Opera House in Hudson, New York (2 hours north of NYC). This is a fun project because it is a collaboration with the incredible singer-songwriter Joy Askew and features a small Pulse ensemble of 6 players: Dan Willis (woodwinds), Lis Rubard (horn), Ana Milosavljevic (violin), Will Martina (cello), Diana Herold (percussion), Greg Chudzik (bass). Each composition is inspired by communities and life along the Hudson River as this year marks the 400th anniversary of Henry Hudson's voyage up the "River of Mountains".
