Nico Muhly

Nico Muhly writes works at the intersection of new music and pop's avant garde. Having collaborated with both Bjork and Phillip Glass, he is well-versed in minimalist seduction and the sonic juxtaposition of beauty and high weirdness. Speaks Volumes is a record of his small ensemble works made with Valgeir Sigurdsson, a pop producer, and shows him to be a dedicated minimalist working with strings, percussion, electronic sounds and voice.
