Gabriel Kahane, Jeffrey Kahane, The Knights & Eric Jacobsen - Gabriel Kahane: Heirloom (2025) [Hi-Res]

Composer/singer/songwriter Gabriel Kahane's third Nonesuch album, Heirloom, is due October 10, 2025, available to pre-order here. The album features a concerto for piano and chamber orchestra by the same name, written by Gabriel Kahane for his father, the conductor and pianist Jeffrey Kahane. The work was commissioned by Linda and (the late) Stuart Nelson, with additional support from the Kansas City Symphony, Oregon Symphony, Aspen Music Festival, Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, St. Paul Chamber Orchestra, and Brooklyn-based orchestral collective The Knights, who also perform on the record. In Gabriel Kahane's words, “Heirloom is an aural family scrapbook, exploring, in its three movements, a series of inheritances.” The album also features “Where are the Arms,” the title track from Kahane’s sophomore LP, heard here in a new orchestral arrangement performed by Gabriel Kahane (vocals, guitar, electronics) with The Knights.
