Arpeggione Announces its 2nd Season

I’ve been calling upon imagery of plants and growth throughout the summer, and as the musicians of Arpeggione finally gathered for rehearsals at Manship Artists Residency I found myself thinking about the idea of Harvest. But I could not have foreseen just how transformative the week of residency at Manship and performances at Starfield and Long Hill would be.

I went for a hike today at Long Hill, where Arpeggione recorded its first project just a few weeks ago. My daughter and I (and now 2 year-old Erlon) have a tradition of going to Long Hill to look for the first signs of Spring every year- the first snowdrops and crocuses, the first green fingers of hyacinth starting to poke through the ground.
