ACME’s Tribute to Jacob Druckman at the gallery of the Tenri Cultural Institute.

“Jacob Druckman became the most important proclaimer of a new romanticism, and practiced what he proclaimed…[His] conjured-up images, the swirling lights and shadows in the orchestral pieces–they added up to a fresher (and yes, newer) romanticism…” - The Village Voice

I’ll be performing Reflections on the Nature of Water for solo marimba and Come Round for chamber ensemble on our hommage to this great composer. Also on the program is his String Quartet #2.

6/25 Update: Click here for excerpts from this performance of Reflections.

ACME is dedicated to the outstanding performance of contemporary masterworks for chamber ensemble, principally written by American composers. The dynamic ensemble’s concerts are a unique blend of intelligent performance and vibrant energy.

“The ACME Ensemble is fast making a lasting impression on the New York new music landscape.” - Time Out New York
