UPDATE (7 DEC) It was fun while it lasted… The announcement for the nomination “Best Chamber Music Performance” was announced. ”Music from Raritan River” had a great run, but was bested by some pretty stiff competition. Thank you to Michael and Laura for playing our music and putting it in the spotlight! Looking forward to your next recording.
UPDATE (7 OCT) The Newman-Oltman duo is on the ballot for a Grammy nomination “Best Chamber Music Performance”. Members of the Recording Academy… please vote for “Music from Raritan River”. This CD features three pieces I co-composed with Rami Vamos during my undergrad years at Oberlin. The CD also features the music of R. Sierra, D Bogdanovic, L. Liebermann, A.R. Thomas and M. Karmon. The Daedelos String Quartet plays in this recording as well.
Note: The CD has to go through one more round before it is included in the Nomination ceremony. Wish us luck!
