MINNEAPOLIS SHOW W/ NICO MUHLY

In May I performed 2 shows with Nico Muhly and a new friend, Nadia Sirota, in Minneapolis at the Southern Theater. I finally received some beautiful photos by Jayme Halbritter from the show.


Instead of a band I brought along four dancers and superDraw creator Joshue Ott, and performed musically solo on voice, piano and live electronics. Almost all the arrangements were totally new, very stripped down and partially improvised.



My wife Jennifer choreographed and performed TELL (a duet) and and medley of BREAK and STAND (a quartet).

The projected visuals, which also included a dance film to a live version of RAISE by my wife Jennifer & photographer Benden Beecy, were cast against the huge, crumbling rear wall of the space. It was pretty amazing. I'll try and get that video up on YouTube soon.



Special thanks to Kate over there at the Southern, and Nico and Nadia for sharing the bill with me!
