It’s a fantastic, packed weekend for The Crossing, leading off yesterday with a new single release from our upcoming album BORN – "Carolina Parakeet" from Edie Hill’s Spectral Spirits. It’s a taste of what's to come this Friday when we release the entire album, BORN: music of Edie Hill and Michael Gilbertson.
At the same time, last night we capped an incredible week at the Warren Miller Performing Arts Center in Big Sky, Montana (hosted by WMPAC's amazing John Zirkle) with the world premiere of Shara Nova’s TITRATION – an emotional journey that leaves us all uplifted, thoughtful, and energized.
Now we bring TITRATION to the Ventura Music Festival in our first California Performance since 2019 (Sunday, August 7 @ Ventura College Performing Arts Center, tickets here). It’s been too long, but a festival by the sea with works of Shara, David Lang, Ayanna Woods, Caroline Shaw, Robert Maggio, and Nicholas Cline…is a pretty sweet way to return.
From there we head home, spending time in the studio to record Shara's new work and preparing for our first home concert ever in the month of August – A Summer Celebration: Shara Nova's TITRATION Friday, August 13 at the Presbyterian Church of Chestnut Hill in Philadelphia (tickets here), and the release of the full album of BORN, our 27th studio release, the day before on August 12 (streaming everywhere, pre-order here).
The Crossing is on the move and loving it.
