“We’re very excited to be in town supporting Judd’s tremendous premiere,” said Brittelle referring to Greenstein’s Minnesota Orchestra commission (link below) “and look forward to the opportunity to share other sides of the New Amsterdam world with the audience. We’re especially excited to be partnering with Kate Nordstrum Projects, an organization that shares our mission for presenting visceral, compelling, and accessible art music.”
