TAK Editions Podcast Podcast

Conversations with composers and other musicians working in the vibrant new music community of New York City and beyond. Episodes are curated by and often feature members of TAK, an ambitious ensemble that “impresses with the organicity of their sound, their dynamism and virtuosity — and, well, just a dash of IDGAF as they slay the thorniest material like it’s nothing” (WQXR).
