In Concerto for One Tracy takes orchestra works written for him by John Adams, Kenji Bunch, Nico Muhly, and Terry Riley, and arranges them into solo performances using electronics and live loop recordings for a virtual symphonic experience.

Tracy Silverman: "This performance is a special opportunity for me to demonstrate the range and versatility of the six-string electric violin and what I refer to as 21st-century violin playing - which is fully immersed in and reflects the popular, multicultural landscape of contemporary American musical life."

Album Release
The concert will also serve as the album release party for Tracy's new album Between the Kiss and the Chaos, which the New York Times praised for the way it "conjures expansive colorful sound worlds."

Party
The party will feature Tracy's special Nashville recipes for Mint Julep Shooters, Devil's Food Cupcakes, Mint Julep Cupckaes, and more.
