26th June 2020: Quinsin Nachoff releases first single ‘Violin Concerto: Movement I’ from new release ‘Pivotal Arc’ featuring Molinari Quartet and Nathalie Bonin + featured on CBC’s Albums You Need To Hear
Saxophonist and composer Quinsin Nachoff’s career to date has delivered a boundary-crossing body of work that’s consistently unpredictable. His new album Pivotal Arc presents his most ambitious project yet: bringing together virtuoso violin soloist Nathalie Bonin bassist Mark Helias and drummer Satoshi Takeishi, and stunning young vibraphone player Michael Davidson, and adding a wind and string ensemble conducted by JC Sanford. A contemporary string quartet performed by the renowned Molinari String Quartet and the extended title piece round out the album. The result is three diverse long-form works that flow naturally together.
