New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Nu Deco Ensemble kicks off their commissioning series on April 20-21 at New World Center with the world premiere of violinist, singer/songwriter, and composer Kishi Bashi's "Improvisations on EO 9066" (video link here). This world premiere will be the focal point of a performance that will also include music of Mason Bates, Shostakovich, and Depeche Mode.

In a ground breaking, multi-media world premiere, award winning indie-pop songwriter Kishi Bashi will bring a newly orchestrated work, inspired by his visits to Japanese American Incarceration sites, to the New World Center. Mr. Bashi will also perform and collaborate with Nu Deco Ensemble on new songs from his vast catalogue. Actual filmed musical performances will be set to lush orchestrations and breathtaking cinematography, in a narrative historical meditation on Executive Order 9066. This composition and performance will be part of a larger documentary piece of Bashi's titled "Omoiyari: A Songfilm by Kishi Bashi". "Collaborating with Kishi Bashi last year was one of the highlights of the season, and was a turning point in the growth of our organization. When he brought us this incredible and important idea for this composition, we jumped at the chance to bring him back to Nu Deco a second time," says co-founder and artistic director, Sam Hyken. Accompanying the new composition on this performance will be additional works by Bashi, a new symphonic suite of the music of English-Electronic band Depeche Mode, Shostakovich Symphony No. 10, and American composer Mason Bates' Mothership. Tickets available here.

The performances will take place at New World Center, located at 500 17th Street, Miami Beach, FL, on Friday, April 20 and Saturday, April 21 at 8:00pm. For more information and to purchase your tickets please call 305-673-3330 or visit New World Center's website.

This project was the recipient of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation Knight Arts Challenge, which funds the best ideas for bringing Miami together through the arts, and received additional funding from City of Miami Beach Cultural Affairs Program and Citizens Interested in Arts.
