An extraordinary journey for violin and percussion, stretching across 15 movements and over 68 minutes. Canadian composer Linda Catlin Smith is one of the best-kept secrets of experimental music, and ‘Dirt Road’ is one of her few concert-length pieces. Brian Olewnick writes “this striking, gorgeous album from Linda Catlin Smith is wonderfully played by Mira Benjamin (violin) and Simon Limbrick (percussion)… definitely check it out.”
