Tippet Rise OPUS 2016: Domo is a live recording born from the inaugural season at the Tippet Rise Art Center in Fishtail Montana. The centre’s intimate concert space is set on a 10,260-acre working sheep and cattle ranch dotted with majestic large-scale sculptures – all nestled against the backdrop of the Beartooth Mountains. Tippet Rise celebrates the concept that art, music, architecture, and nature are inextricably linked in the human experience, each amplifying the other.
In music by Scriabin, Chopin, Stravinsky, Rachmaninov, and Antón García Abril; and through extraordinary performances by pianists Yevgeny Sudbin, Svetlana Smolina, Christopher O’Riley, Anne-Marie McDermott, Stephen Hough, Jenny Chen and Julien Brocal; cellist Matt Haimovitz, trumpeter Elmer Churampi, and soprano Emily Helenbrook, Tippet Rise OPUS 2016 presents a cornucopia of virtuosity, fantasy, and transcendence. All the excitement of musicians and audience is felt in the room, and sometimes a violent rainstorm makes its presence known as well.

“…interesting and well performed … On the basis of this recording I know the artistic level is exceptionally high.”
James Harrington – American Record Guide – March/April 2018
“… Rachmaninov (the Suite for two pianos, the Vocalise in a version for cello and piano) rubs shoulders with contemporary music by Antón García Abril. A gem of a Chopin encore by our own Stephen Hough leads to the Scriabin bookend: a weird arrangement of The Poem of Ecstasy for two pianos with solo trumpet.”
