This first recording of Steve Reich's Jacob's Ladder, performed by the New York Philharmonic, conducted by Jaap van Zweden, and Synergy Vocals, was made during its October 2023 world premiere at Lincoln Center's David Geffen Hall. “Lovely and refreshing," says the New York Classical Review. "Superb." The first recording of Traveler's Prayer (2020), performed by Colin Currie Group and Synergy Vocals, was made at Tokyo Opera City Concert Hall, also in 2023. "The tone of its score, from first note to last, is sustained sublimity," says the Los Angeles Times.
