Strange Fruit arr. by Edward W. Hardy Repost from @edwardwhardy • This week I had the pleasure of creating music with my friends again. I haven’t been in the same room with other musicians for several months due to Covid-19 but boy was this a fulfilling experience that lifted my spirits.

The performance in New York has ended successfully! Thank you very much for your support♪ This was my first time performing in America, and I was a little nervous, but as I rehearsed with everyone, it became more and more fun, and I was able to give it my all on stage! When I was walking around New York, I was happy to hear from my Instagram followers many times♪ My next goal is to come to New York to perform within the next two years! And I hope to be able to hold a solo concert at that time! Let's continue to have a wonderful time making music together!…

He is the composer, music director, and violinist of the sensational Off-Broadway show The Woodsman, which was a recipient of the 2014 Jim Henson Foundation Grant, the 2016 Obie Award, and was broadcasted on PBS stations several times. He is a proud member of the Local 802 Musicians Union, ASCAP, and the Dramatist Guild of America.

We are looking back on last week's EarShot Readings in New York City, which mark ACO's 30th New Music Reading since its founding. We're proud to have served 230 artists with ACO's readings in New York, known first as the Whitaker Readings, then Underwood, and now EarShot.
