Steve
Reich Project
For our fall 2006 concert we performed Steve Reich's masterpiece Music for 18 Musicians, in honor of the composer's seventieth birthday. Not only was that performance successful, but has led to many other opportunities for the ensemble. Look below for various links concerning our work.

CD Recording
On a whim I sent our concert recording to Innova Recordings, who were thoroughly impressed and interested in releasing a CD. In January 2007 we recorded over three long, grueling days in beautiful Royce Auditorium of St. Cecelia's Music Center in Grand Rapids, MI. All-star engineer Silas Brown flew in from New York to handle the sessions. Look at the photographs HERE. This is the fifth commercial recording of the work, and the FIRST in 5.1 surround. Read the reactions to the recording HERE.
