Our Take

Aylish Kerrigan's latest album, "The Dream Bridge: Songs By Charles Ives & Henry Cowell," is a mesmerizing journey through the avant-garde world of these two American composers. Kerrigan's ethereal vocals float effortlessly over the eclectic mix of Ives' dissonant harmonies and Cowell's experimental sonorities.

From the haunting beauty of Ives' "The Cage" to the rhythmic complexity of Cowell's "The Tides of Manaunaun," Kerrigan showcases her vocal agility and range, effortlessly tackling the challenging repertoire with grace and precision. Her interpretation of these modernist classics is both bold and nuanced, capturing the essence of each composer's unique style with stunning clarity.

Kerrigan's collaboration with pianist Clara Gerdes is a match made in heaven, with Gerdes' sensitive touch and inventive phrasing elevating the already stellar performances to new heights. The duo's chemistry is palpable, creating a sense of intimacy that draws the listener in and refuses to let go.

"The Dream Bridge" is a testament to Kerrigan's talent and versatility as a performer, cementing her status as a rising star in the world of classical music. With this album, she has not only paid homage to two musical giants but has also firmly established herself as a force to be reckoned with in her own right. A must-listen for fans of contemporary classical music, this album is a true masterpiece that deserves all the praise it receives.
