Gregor Huebner News

Friends,

In the past month I’ve taught composition at the University for Music and Theater in Munich, Germany, performed with the Richie Beirach Quartet in Istanbul, Turkey and participated in the Fairbanks Alternative Improvisational Music Festival in Alaska.

I’m back in New York City and this week Sirius Quartet recorded new works by six contemporary composers for PARMA Call for Scores. Tonight we will perform the compositions at the Dimenna Center.

In other exciting news, Sirius Quartet is gearing up for the 4th Progressive Chamber Music Festival in NYC and 2nd year in Munich. We launched a crowdsourcing campaign to raise funds to expand the Festival. Become a backer and get some amazing perks such as free festival admission, CDs, handwritten score, an original composition from a Sirius Quartet member, or a house concert. Please become a supporter!

Gregor Huebner El Violin Latino Vol. 3. – Los Soñadores/Dreamers has received rave reviews and tons of press including an article in Jazzthetik: Träumer. Gregor Huebner wandert weiter zwischen den Welten. Visakontrolle mit Verena Düren.

The album is available on CD, Digital or Vinyl from GLM in Europe and Asia and from Zoho in the US, South America, and Canada. The liner notes were written by Kabir Sehgal, a New York Times bestselling author and multi-Grammy & Latin Grammy Award winning producer.

Regards,
Gregor

PARMA Recordings presents an immersive program of contemporary works for string quartet, performed by the internationally acclaimed Sirius Quartet. The conservatory-trained Sirius Quartet shines with precision, soul, and raw energy, championing a forward-thinking, genre-defying approach that melds perfectly with the works of six visionary composers: Brian Field, Ian Erickson, Jennifer Castellano, Marga Richter, Mari Tamaki, and Sam Post. These works, alongside a selection of Sirius Quartet’s own compositions, make for an innovative concert program that gives new meaning to the concept of a string quartet performance. More >>

The video of Los Soñadores/Dreamers premiered on May 4, 2018 is getting more important each and every day in our world, that’s why I send it to you again to share it with all your friends. The video has been viewed on Facebook nearly 10k times. Facebook is no longer allowing us to boost it, they say it’s a Political Message. Initially they allowed us to boost it, and the song was incredibly popular in the U.S., Central and South America. Now we need to spread the word about this video even further. Please help us, WATCH & SHARE on YouTube or Facebook.
