1913 – “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen”

The 1913 duo is the unique pairing of a cellist and a percussionist. Janet Schiff and Brian Kreuziger musically push through the boundaries of time, tradition and culture. Witnesses describe 1913 as innovative, image and thought-provoking, genre-challenging, clever, strong, and hypnotic. Through technology the cello multiplies infinite layers over steady and complex percussion.WMSE and TCD are pleased to offer what no other broadcast or web service in the world can this holiday season: “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen” rendered on cello and tablas.—Tom Strini
