Grateful for the wonderful memories from our WINTERREISE last week.
Many thanks to @brooklynartsongsociety for the invitation to take part in the epic Schubert marathon, to my amazing colleagues who I was honored to share the stage with—especially dear Ken Noda—and to the incredible audiences who shared the journey with us throughout the day. Hats off to Mike Brofman (@mlb763) for the tireless work he does to bring this vibrant organization to Brooklyn. We need songs and Mike is doing important work. Please do what you can to support the @brooklynartsongsociety

Can’t wait to perform Winterreise tomorrow with my long-time collaborator, Ken Noda. Here’s a moment from our performance of Schumann’s Dichterliebe, Op. 48 — Hör’ ich das Liedchen klingen — with the @chambermusicsociety of Lincoln Center.
Join us tomorrow for Schubert’s masterpiece with the @brooklynartsongsociety. Our Winterreise is at 5 p.m. at @roulette_intermedium as the 2nd part of part of an epic day of Schubert song cycles, beginning with Die schöne Müllerin and concluding with Schwanengesang.
I’m also looking forward to reuniting with the wonderful musicians of the @chambermusicsociety in December for performances of Bach Cantatas!

Gotta give it up to the guy who started it all…my man, Sophocles (in my old Astoria stomping grounds).
Tonight was the last performance of our fantastic production of Oedipus Rex (Jocasta‘s Line) by @studiowaynemcgregor at @operaen_ Thank for to the wonderful cast and crew, orchestra and chorus for work of the highest quality. I am very proud to be a part of this project.
And here’s to another very special guy, Igor himself who created an opera and a tenor role for the ages. I’m so pleased that I will sing Stravinsky’s king again later this season for my Czech debut in April with Prague Radio Symphony Orchestra (@symfonickyorchestrcro).
I’ll miss Oslo and this opera company for the warm, supportive people who made it such an artistically and personally fulfilling experience. Tusen Takk!

#tbt to “the echoing of tenses” recording session in July with Miranda Cuckson, Anthony Cheung and yours truly at @OktavenAudio in Mount Vernon, NY.
Commissioned by @runningamoc, it’s a work that we first performed at the @OjaiMusicFestival. Along the way, we’ve shared this unique chamber piece with audiences at Brown University, @92ndStY, and the 2025 @LincolnCenter Festival so we were able to bring lots of experience with the piece into the studio. @Anthonyscheung and @Mirandacmusic are genuine musical geniuses and it was intimidating to make music with artists of their caliber and talent, but they made up for it with their warmth and kindness. I learned so much working with them, and I think the world of Anthony’s beautiful, brilliant piece. I am so glad we will be able to share it with you soon…I will keep you posted!
