Rabbit Rabbit Radio

Violinist and producer Johnny Gandelsman developed This is America in 2020, out of a time of rupture and disconnection. Thinking about ways that one person could make a small difference, he brought together commissioning partners across 11 states and territories to commission 22 new works. He invited the composers, all US-based, to reflect on the time we’re all living in. Since that initial burst of creativity, This is America has been performed throughout North America and grown to encompass 28 compositions for solo violin. This performance, featuring Rabbit Rabbit Radio and Gabriel Kahane, is the fourth in a five-part series.
