For classical pianist Simone Dinnerstein and singer-songwriter Tift Merritt, creating Night was like two explorers seeking a common musical path. Intrigued by the notion their worlds could merge, their collaboration seeks where classical and folk meet and creates a sonic landscape all its own.
“I love the idea that a song by Billie Holiday can speak to a song by Purcell, and that each one can influence the way we hear the other.” Simone Dinnerstein
“True collaboration is that willingness to extend yourself to a new place but in a way that does not feel like anything has been given up.” Tift Merritt
