I have had the great privilege to play the music of Iannis Xenakis many hundreds of times over the last 35 years. The collaboration with ICE on Palimpsest, Echange, Akanthos and Omega has been one of the most satisfying and exciting of any of those performances. The group is superb, dynamic and passionate. The extraordinary Tony Arnold is, well, extraordinary. What she does is so engaged and exacting, she seems to re-write the rules of singing. I think the MCA concert in Chicago will be mind-blowing!
