Chicago Composers Playlist
In honor of our November release featuring music by Chicago composer Mischa Zupko, we present a playlist of 20 different Chicago composers, to which we’ll add the title track from Mischa Zupko’s album Eclipse when it’s released on November 11. Sharing high-quality recordings of the work of our city’s many talented composers is a core aspect of Cedille’s mission, and we’ve been thrilled to present world-premiere recordings written and performed by local artists to national and global audiences. Enjoy our playlist, and check back in later this month to hear new music by Mischa Zupko!
