Caroline Shaw, remixed

Caroline Shaw’s Pulitzer-winning Partita for 8 Voices has been remixed by eight artists! WQXR is streaming a new remix every week, with a new track each Wednesday. Our very own Daniel Wohl is one of the eight artists. Go listen to his remix!

But here’s the best part: by donating to New Amsterdam Records’ Fundraiser,  you can download all eight remixes, and simultaneously support New Amsterdam Records. We think it’s a win-win.

Wild Shore wrap

TRANSIT had an amazing time at the Wild Shore Festival for New Music in July. For photos and videos of the event, check out our facebook page. Here is a video that captures some of the spirit of the festival. Thanks to everyone at Wild Shore for having us!
