Rachmaninoff’s All-Night Vigil on Sounds Choral

American conductor Matthew Robertson (b. 1986) is the founder and driving voice of the professional choir and orchestra The Thirteen, which he has led in more than two hundred concerts, two dozen concert tours, nine commercial recordings, and numerous world premieres. Noted for boundary-defying performances that “transfigure the listener” (The Washington Post), for his “incisive tempos and dramatic pacing” (Washington Classical Review) and “flowing lines and dramatic climaxes”(Fanfare Magazine, UK), Robertson’s vision has led to acclaimed performances of a diverse repertoire, often featuring use of staging and multimedia, and to The Thirteen’s winning the Most Creative Programming Award from the Greater Washington Area Choral Music Awards.
