McGregor-Verdejo Duo News
Recording New Album
March 2025: work began on our album with award-winning sound engineer Don Harder, thanks to support from Canada Council for the Arts. Over two days we recorded the works of Takemitsu, Ortíz, Hiroki Tsurumoto, and Kara Gibbs (with soprano Dory Hayley). We’ll record the second half this summer, including a new piece by Luis Ramirez!
Artist Residency at CMMAS
In August 2023 the McGregor-Verdejo Duo participated in an artist residency at CMMAS (Centro Mexicano para la Música y las Artes Sonoras) in Morelia, Mexico. This short but intensive week was spent delving deep into the music of Diego Lozano, Rodney Sharman, Gabriela Ortíz, and Alfredo Santa Ana.
New Video: Wave Remote
Following the residency at CMMAS, it was off to Mexico City to film the video for Alfredo Santa Ana‘s commissioned piece, Wave Remote. Directed by Javier Posadas, Wave Remote is a love letter to Alfredo’s time growing up as a rock guitarist in CDMX — with liberal doses of magic realism and American minimalism mixed in for good measure.
