I was fortunate as an audio engineer to spend a second summer in a row at the Tanglewood Music Festival, and to work with the Tanglewood Music Center fellows, Boston Symphony Orchestra players and multiple visiting artists. One of the highlights of the contemporary music festival was Benjamin’s opera recording. I was lucky enough to work on this project with Tim Martyn and James Perella. And finally today this recording is going to go live:
