NewsPraise for Ensemble 365's CD Eastern Currents from Colin Clarke in Fanfare Magazine
"The standard of performance throughout by all performers is pretty much faultless." "The performance here [of Frangiz Ali-Zadeh's Three Watercolors] is fabulous, the aching loneliness of “Narcissus” for soprano and flute (itself implying a shakuhachi) balanced by the angular play of “The Boatman.” "Mary Hubbell is a most expressive soprano, and Alice Jones the perfect partner (the two parts are very much equals). The deep flute resonance of the opening of the final movement, “Dream Song,” and the way Hubbell’s blanched tone morphs with the flute sound is a spectacular sonic feat that captures the fluidity of sound that lies at the heart of Lam’s music." "A phenomenally interesting release... required listening." I'm curating a new chamber music series in 2017-18 at the Brooklyn Conservatory of Music -- Parlour Room Sessions, featuring fantastic musicians, lively conversation, and audience Q&A.
