Nicholas PHAN, tenor
BROOKLYN RIDER
Recorded and filmed at Oktaven Audio, May 28, 2021.
Nico Muhly composed the album’s title work, Stranger, for Nicholas Phan, juxtaposing settings of accounts of immigration through Ellis Island with those of texts protesting the United States’ Chinese Exclusion policies of the late-19th century. The composer explains:
“These texts are not meant to address some generic sense of the American immigrant experience, but rather serve an attempt to navigate different kinds of shared American stories, from the confrontational (forced assimilation) to the practical (eye exams at the border) and make the connection between oppressive 19th-century immigration policies and those being advocated in the U.S. even now.”
