CD Release Party set for November 18th

Update #5 · Oct 14, 2011 · comment

Hello,

     We are working hard to finish the CD and of course you are wondering why it is taking so long. Well, mixing is a long process and I want to make it the best it can possibly be. 

     So, we have set our CD release party for November 18th at the Collins Theatre as part of the Concerts at the Collins series. The Theatre is at 1100 Ellis St in San Francisco, 8pm. There will be Wine and hors d'oeuvres available. And for my sake, the cd better be done by then! We will get it to you as soon as we can.

If you want to come to the concerts, there is a discount code: classicalrev 

this will get you $10 tickets

Thanks so much for your support!

We will be performing on the radio program West Coast Live this Saturday morning October 15th from 10am-noon on KALW 91.7 and on the web, have a listen.

Also we will play form 11am-noon at the DeYoung Museum this Sunday as part of the Chamber Music Day Festival.  Hope to see you there.

Sascha

12 songs recorded!!!

Update #3 · Aug 17, 2011 · comment

 Hola, 

    The Musical Art Quintet has successfully finished recording the 12 songs for Nuevo Chamber. We have had a great time tracking at Granada Studios with Anthony, Jory, Charith, Shain and Myself, with special appearances by Phillip Brezina and Adam Scow. I am in the process of mixing the album now. We have our CD release party set for Monday, October 3rd at Yoshi's SF. 

    Nicole Schach will be painting our portrait for the album cover at a live concert Sunday at her studio, Bazaar Gilman in Berkeley Sunday August 28th at 2pm. If you are in the area, please come by and say hi. 

     We also have a special event: "Tumbao con Cuerdas" on Thursday, August 25 at BeatBox in SF. Anthony y Su Charanga will perform as well as the Quintet and La Gente, a Latino Hip-Hop group led by Rafael Sierra of the Red Poppy Art House. 

      We could not have gotten this far without your support, thank you so much! You will be the first to get the CD when it is done.

Musically Yours,

Sascha

Classical Revolution update

Update #2 · Jun 21, 2011 · comment

Happy Summer Solstice!

  I wanted to let all of you know the status of the Musical Art Quintet recording and the Classical Revolution Records:

    After a brief hiatus to welcome to the world my daughter Kaia Luna, we are back to work. I will be recording today and all this week with Anthony Blea and Jory Fankuchen. Much of the work has been done but there is more to do. 

   We have been looking at different artists to create to album cover, if you have any recommendations, please send them.

   The release is now projected for early August. Thank you so much for your support on this venture, and you will be the first ones to have the album when it is done. I will try to send some sneak peak MP3's as they become available. 

Thank you again and enjoy your summer!

Ciao,

Sascha
