Andrew Yee and Caroline Shaw – Or, The Whale

Or, The Whale, a performance by Caroline Shaw and Andrew Yee of their new album and reimagined works by other composers

Pulitzer Prize winner Caroline Shaw and Grammy winner Andrew Yee perform works that reflect both a musical partnership and a deep friendship, featuring music from their new album, Or, The Whale, alongside recontextualized works by other composers. Longtime friends and collaborators, the duo share a musical language rooted in curiosity, playfulness and emotional clarity, moving effortlessly between classical writing, traditional music and reimagined sound worlds.

A founding member of the Attacca Quartet, Yee has won two Grammys with the ensemble for their recordings of Shaw's compositions ‘Orange’ and ‘Evergreen.' Shaw is a multi-hyphenate musician who frequently collaborates with fellow artists as a producer, composer, violinist and vocalist. Together, Or, The Whale captures two artists working together at the height of their creative powers.
