Speaking of Little Grey Girlfriend, check out this New York Times article from Friday’s Arts section about the all-male a cappella ensemble Chanticleer — and mentioning LGG as well as my frequent collaborator Vince Peterson:
Despite the changes, Mr. Oltman still honors Chanticleer’s past; for example, he remains passionate about Renaissance music. This week Chanticleer performs a series of concerts featuring music by 16th- and 17th-century English composers like Thomas Tallis, William Byrd and Orlando Gibbons. Mr. Oltman also intends to continue commissioning new works, especially by young composers and arrangers like Vince Peterson. He is arranging “Cells Planets,” by the New York indie rock band Little Grey Girlfriend, for the ensemble’s tour next season.
