AltoRiot reviews February release Between the Kiss and the Chaos featuring electronic violinist and composer Tracy Silverman:
“Electronic violinist and composer Tracy Silverman sets out to create one of the more engaging creations for the often ignored instruments in contemporary classical music since Nico Muhly’s 2011 concerto for the electric violin. Broken between two parts, Silverman’s second violin concerto ‘Between the Kiss and Chaos’ and the ‘Axis and Orbits,’ Silverman’s compositional record with support from indie-darlings Calder Quartet is a showcase for the electric violin that’s rarely been done in such a lavish way before…
“Silverman brings an audacity to the electric violin and is proud to exemplify the magnitude it can carry. … Between the Kiss and the Chaos is the best showpiece in recent memory for the electric violin and the most convincing statement for taking it with more seriousness and credibility than its ever been given.” — AltoRiot
