selective defrosting

This is a From the Top premiere of Carolina Bragg's "Birds of Paradise," recorded by the commissioning ensemble, Friction Quartet.

Hosted by pianist Peter Dugan, this program features both material recorded remotely with young musicians in studios near their homes as well as material recorded in-person in Boston, MA. We meet a young cellist who just received a grant to buy the cello he’s been dreaming about for years. A talented teenage French Horn player performs one of Franz Strauss’s beautiful nocturnes, and a young composer premiers a work inspired by the mating rituals of Birds of Paradise.

18-year-old composer Carolina Bragg
