Composer/pianist Timothy Andres, whose debut album, Shy and Mighty, was released on Nonesuch in 2010, performed a concert at New York's (Le) Poisson Rouge in May of this year, coincidentally around the album's two-year anniversary. The program featured what Andres described as a "musical 'self-portrait,'" including two of his own pieces—How can I live in your world of ideas?, from Shy and Mighty, and his piece It takes a long time to become a good composer—as well as works by Ted Hearne, Ingram Marshall, Brahms, and Schumann. The Poisson Rouge concert has now been posted to Q2 Music, the online new-music station from New York's Classical 105.9 WQXR, as part of its Q2 Music Live Concerts series.

"Andres presented a unique program reflecting his eclectic musical tastes and influences," says Q2 Music of the concert. "With selections ranging from Brahms to Ingram Marshall to his own compositions, the evening showcased the breadth of Andres capabilities as both a performer and composer."
