  • Nonesuch Artists to Perform in NY PopsUp, Statewide Festival of Pop-Up Events, February 20 to Labor Day

    Chris Thile, Cécile McLorin Salvant, Rhiannon Giddens, Jeremy Denk, Mandy Patinkin, Gaby Moreno, and Nico Muhly will take part in NY PopsUp, a festival featuring hundreds of pop-up performances—many of which are free of charge and all open to the public—throughout New York City and State. Additionally, Thile and Salvant are on a council of artistic advisors partnering with curator Zack Winokur to program the series. NYPopsUp, which will run from Saturday, February 20, through Labor Day, will make stages out of existing landscapes, including iconic transit stations, parks, subway platforms, museums, skate parks, street corners, fire escapes, parking lots, storefronts, and upstate venues. The festival is being coordinated with state public health officials and will strictly adhere to Department of Health COVID-19 protocols.

    To purchase this album on CD, please visit amazon.com.

    Mandy Patinkin contrasts the songs and sensibilities of Broadway legends Oscar Hammerstein II and Stephen Sondheim. He "crafts a series of interpretations that are often genuinely affecting," declares the Washington Post, "and never more so than when he's meditating on the endlessly curious nature of romance."
