Committed to keeping art song relevant in our time, the Brooklyn Art Song Society, hailed by the New York Times as “a company well worth watching”, has collaborated closely with important living composers such as Tom Cipullo, Herschel Garfein, Daron Hagen, Libby Larsen, Lowell Liebermann, James Matheson, and Yehudi Wyner, and has commissioned works from up-an-coming composers Michael Djupstrom, Marie Incontrera and Michael Rose.The company’s first album, released on Roven Records, features five world premiere recordings of works by Michael Djupstom, Herschel Garfien, James Kallembach, and Glen Roven.A different rising star sings each set: sopranos Elisabeth Marshall, and Laura Strickling, mezzo-soprano Krista River and baritone Kyle Oliver.BASS artistic director Michael Brofman is the pianist heard on this debut undertaking.
