On Thursday, April 13 at 7 pm, Q2 Music and host Helga Davis presented a live show from The Greene Space at WQXR as Vijay Iyer — the pianist-composer whose music is “at once provocative and accessible, intellectually substantive and sensually attractive” (Chicago Tribune) — shared the stage with a diverse array of musical collaborators. Watch the complete show below. Included on the program were solo piano music by Iyer, and duets with the dynamic drummer-composer Tyshawn Sorey and with Iyer's longtime performing partner saxophonist-composer Rudresh Mahanthappa.* Acclaimed violinist and champion of new music Jennifer Koh performed Esa-Pekka Salonen’s lyrical Lachen Verlernt, while George Lewis, the pioneering composer, scholar and member of the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians, joined Ms. Davis on stage for a conversation.
