About yMusic
Founded in New York City in 2008, American chamber ensemble yMusic (Alex Sopp, flutes/voice; Hideaki Aomori, clarinets; CJ Camerieri, trumpet/horn; Rob Moose, violin; Nadia Sirota, viola; Gabriel Cabezas, cello) believes in presenting excellent, emotionally communicative music, regardless of style or idiom. They have a unique mission: to work on both sides of the classical/popular music divide, without sacrificing rigor, virtuosity, charisma or style. yMusic has lent their instantly-recognizable sound to commissions and projects by a dizzying array of artists, including Andrew Norman, Anohni, Missy Mazzoli, Paul Simon, and more.
