Known for blending rich textures, intricate rhythms, and a deep connection to natural soundscapes, Andrew McIntosh's music is both profound and mesmerizing. The individual musical personalities of the performers he writes for are a central consideration in his work, and for this Portrait, he performs alongside his close collaborators Yarn/Wire, in a world premiere Miller Theatre commission.
