Colin Currie has released a solo track as part of Bryce Dessner’s first album on Sony Classical, Solos, which features a collection of solo instrumental works composed by Dessner over the past years.
Colin’s contribution to Solos is a marimba work, Tromp Miniature, which Currie often performs in his solo recitals. In this recording, Colin blends virtuosity with deep expressive impact, delivering a touching and emotional performance of this beautifully crafted solo piece.
Dessner expressed his admiration for the guest soloists featured on the album, stating, 'Writing a solo piece for me is always a great challenge and joy, as you have all the personality and talent of the player plus the physicality and resonance of the solo instrument. Currie’s performance exemplifies this sentiment, showcasing his profound musicality and the rich, resonant qualities of his percussion instruments.'
Solos is available now on all major streaming platforms and physical formats.
