As part of the celebration of Nonesuch Records' 60th anniversary, we launched Nonesuch Selects, a video series in which artists stop by the Nonesuch office, pick some of their favorites from the music library, and share a few words on their choices. Pianist Jeremy Denk, whose new album, Ives Denk, is out next week, October 18, stopped by and chose recordings by Jan DeGaetani, Gilbert Kalish, John Adams, Kronos Quartet, Richard Goode, Brad Mehldau, Caroline Shaw, Dawn Upshaw, and So Percussion, featuring music by Ives, Crumb, Schoenberg, Brahms, and more, and the Inside Llewyn Davis soundtrack and Jonny Greenwood's There Will Be Blood score. You can watch it below and subscribe to the Nonesuch Records YouTube channel for all the latest:

Jeremy Denk's album Ives Denk, released in celebration of the 150th anniversary of Ives' birth, features the composer's four violin sonatas, performed with violinist Stefan Jackiw, as well as remastered versions of his Sonatas No. 1 and 2 for piano, from Denk's 2010 debut recording, Jeremy Denk Plays Ives. "Mr. Denk's playing exuded affinity for Ives and vivid imagination," the New York Times says of a performance. "Mr. Jackiw, deftly balancing fervor and elegance, beautiful tone and earthy colorings, proved a comparably inspired Ivesian." You can preorder the album and hear two tracks now here.

    Donnacha Dennehy’s Land of Winter is out now. The piece, performed by the composer's longtime collaborators Alarm Will Sound and conductor Alan Pierson, explores the subtleties of Ireland’s seasons via twelve connected sections representing the months of the year. "It is the varying quality of light that truly demarcates the seasons," Dennehy says, "from the shorter days of grey or piercing light in the winter to the warmer but mercurial light of summer days that at solstice stretch almost to midnight. I like this play between light and time, and it is the major inspiration behind the piece." You can watch a video for “July" here.
