NPR MUSIC: Sarah Kirkland Snider's Mass, Rebooted For The 21st Century
BY TOM HUIZENGA
“When she's not composing, Snider runs New Amsterdam Records, out of Brooklyn, which she co-founded in 2008. She's part of the so-called indie classical scene, resourceful musicians with a do-it-yourself aesthetic. Through her smart and resplendent exploration of age-old musical formulas, Snider's eco-inspired Mass for the Endangered is a blast from the past that resonates profoundly in the present.”
