Undersong:
Music of Jason Eckardt
Mode Records
Fred Sherry, Tony Arnold, Claire Chase, Steven Schick, ICE
Jason Eckardt’s Undersong (2002-2008) is a cycle of chamber compositions that are performed consecutively, without pause, and form a CD-length super-composition. The title refers to the powerful and unyielding voice of the oppressed as well as the lyrical strands of interconnection that lie beneath the work’s fragmented surface.
The highly anticipated recording featuring soloists Fred Sherry, Claire Chase, Tony Arnold, and the International Contemporary Ensemble conducted by Steven Schick will be release by Mode Records on August 2.
