AWS show reviewed in NY Times
The New Times recently reviewed the Alarm Will Sound show at Le Poisson Rouge. They called Preshish Moments "Why Do Birds" a "barely recognizable deconstruction of the Carpenters' "Close to You"" and said that it and other new transcriptions in the AWS repertoire "benefited from the arrangers’ obsessive attention to detail and the players’ fascination with this music." You can read the entire review by clicking on the pic below or by clicking here.
