Julia Wolfe hears her newest work on September 8th, during Gaudeamus Music Week in Amsterdam, when acclaimed violinist Monica Germino premieres With A Blue Dress On, for “multiple Monicas.” Based on the traditional fiddle tune, Pretty Little Girl with a Blue Dress On, Wolfe weaves vocal iterations with melodic fragments to create a unique and beautiful solo for a dynamic performer and multi-track electronics.

Additionally! On October 3, Julia has a profile concert at New York City's hippest spot for new music, Le Poisson Rouge. Don't miss this show if you are in the NYC area. With Stronghold, for 8 double basses, Bang on a Can All-Star Robert Black and the Hartt Bass Band become a mega bass with wild harmonic rolls, soaring tunes, and an earthquake of low strings. In the relentless and breathless Dig Deep the ferocious JACK Quartet whip all 16 strings up to a frenzy, and in LAD, for multiple bagpipes, piper Matthew Welch builds dense walls of reedy sound that turn to a cacophony of gigs and reels.
