swellsort timely, excellent music, highlighting a serious issue that plagues us to this day Favorite track: VI. Certainly We Can All Agree.

gonzaloc01 Track XI: Amazing play on the classical american patriot genre, as a foreign listener, Kahane's mastery of lyricism and orchestral details bolstered my interest for books on American history in a search to understand the nuance found within the songs,Equally mindblowing as introspective. Favorite track: XI. A Brief History of The Subprime Mortgage Loan Crisis.

“…[Kahane’s] magnum opus, which unflinchingly confronted an American social problem that continues to worsen: homelessness… the piece vividly conjured the humiliations, fears and terrors that homeless Americans face, thanks to its vivid libretto and wholly accessible score.”

— The Chicago Tribune

“...Gabriel Kahane’s extraordinary oratorio “emergency shelter intake form,” [is] a cogent and emotionally potent response to the issue of housing insecurity. By turns bracing, funny, wry, sad, bitter or angry, “emergency shelter intake form” walks you through the systemic problems that have left hundreds of thousands of people unhoused — or struggling to keep a roof over their head.”

— San Francisco Chronicle

Here is the world premiere recording of a piece that has been taken up by more than half a dozen American orchestras since its premiere in May of 2018. This album — featuring the Oregon Symphony and Maybelle Community Singers under the baton of Carlos Kalmar, with soloists Alicia Hall Moran, Holcombe Waller, Holland Andrews, and the composer, himself — marks Kahane's first full-length orchestral release.

Compositions with somewhat cinematic feelings and good chunk of diversity between them. Bandcamp doesn't allow me set Draft of a High-Rise as my favourite, so I have to go with second best track Gremlin Monroe

This is a great album. Starts brilliantly with Sister Starling and had me completely immersed throughout. I get lost in it to the point where it is always a surprise when the last track ends. Elevators was an early favourite and for me its the standout track - but its a close thing yorksprof

Exuberant, life affirming, and heart wrenching all at the same time. What a magnificent piece of music, performed with genius, generosity, and love. If only Julius Eastman, who I am so grateful to discover, could hear it. davidskeist
