Grammy Award Nomination – Best Engineered Album, Classical, 2019 – Bob Hanlon & Lawrence Rock, engineers; Ian Good & Lawrence Rock, mastering engineers (Jaap Van Zweden, Francisco J. Núñez, Donald Nally, The Crossing, Young People's Chorus Of NY City & New York Philharmonic)
"Ambitious, heartfelt, often compelling […] There is both heady optimism and a sense of dread in Ms. Wolfe’s music […] Mr. van Zweden led a commanding account of a score that […] ends with an elegiac final chorus in which the names of all 146 victims are tenderly sung to create a fabric of music and memory.”
- New York Times
The World Premiere in January of Julia Wolfe’s Fire in my mouth, a searingly vivid evocation of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire, perfectly capped New York Stories: Threads of Our City, the New York Philharmonic's exploration of New York’s roots as a city of immigrants.
The recording of these performances by the New York Philharmonic and Music Director Jaap van Zweden is now released digitally.
Fire in my mouth, which the Orchestra co-commissioned, also featured The Crossing, conducted by Donald Nally, and the Young People’s Chorus of New York City, directed by Francisco J. Núñez. The performance earned the coveted spot in the highbrow / brilliant quadrant of New York magazine’s Approval Matrix.
