Doveman and Peter Pears: An Evening with Thomas Bartlett and Nico Muhly
Curated by Matthew Lyons
In this evening of new music, pianist/composer/singer Thomas Bartlett brings together two of his ongoing collaborative projects. First Bartlett will perform with Nico Muhly as their duo project, Peter Pears, including collaborative compositions and two-piano performances of Colin McPhee's gamelan transcriptions. Then Bartlett performs material from the recently released Doveman album, The Conformist. With a sound that is both haunting and inspiring, Doveman is Bartlett and an ensemble made up of a select group of frequent collaborators including Muhly, Sam Amidon, and others.
