The performance of my Trans Requiem the other night was one of the most important musical experiences I have ever been a part of. I am blown away by the commitment of every single musician who sang and played my music. I am going to post a few videos this week, but the full performance can be found in my bio! Thank you to @docmelbaker for making all this happen, thank you to Melissa Attebury for working with me so hard to bring the piece to life, thank you to my soloists @breannaelycesinclaire and @g0furtherr - Trans is beautiful, and you both are such beautiful souls and voices, and you are needed and wanted. Thank you to @nthatchr who always always makes my writing look more cohesive and beautiful. Thank you @sadqueer4life for allowing me to use this powerful poem. Thank you to the @trinitychurchnyc for not only welcoming us to the space, but projecting our colors in your house. Thank you to the team at Trinity for capturing the sound so beautifully. I am so excited for you all to hear it.

1000 posts on instagram! I figured I would take this time to check in and tell you about what’s going on in my life. 1. Me in front of a bodega dressed in my favorite @megest1994 clothing. I am trans, and my pronouns are she or they.
2. I am the very fortunate partner of @drowned1nsound and mother to my child Otis. He calls me ama.
3. I have received two Grammy awards with my people @attaccaquartet -We also play shows and make people happy.
4. I have developed a rewarding solo presence playing concerti and my solo show “Halfie”.
5. I have a duo I love playing in with my friend @carolineadelaideshaw
6. A few years ago I helped start a magical organization called @chamberqueer with my friends @goodhelpdanielle @biberoni and @bmumstagram
7. I compose music, some for stage and some for screen.
8. I love to make art. This is my favorite lemon.

A lot of you have asked about the dress I was wearing yesterday and I have been excited to show you all since it’s creation. The brilliant @angelilli_official designed this dress for me, as well as dressing @violinist_amy_schroeder and the love of my life @drowned1nsound (rocking the fiercest, gorgeous tuxedo dyke look of the year), and after I was measured, squeezed, boosted and spun for a week by the genius Jenny Couture I was ready to wear it to the #grammys . I can’t state enough what a beautiful process it was. Sam heard me when I told her the styles I felt beautiful in and ones that made me feel self conscious. She designed with an eye for beauty, but her heart was there to make me feel myself, and it is something I will never forget.
Trans representation was at a new level this year at the GRAMMYs (I see you @recordingacademy ) and thanks to you, Sam, a whole generation of trans kids and other folk got to see me show up as myself on that stage. Thank you. Hair by @sullylayo makeup by @marinagravani official photo by @benjoarwas

When I first met @millennial_perennial she was a kid who came up to me after a show. To say that I am incredibly proud of how far she has come is a gross understatement. The music she writes taps into the very things that make us human, and she lays the groundwork for musicians to find the wonder and joy many of us left in childhood. I am so proud to be a part of her ascent into the great composers of our time, and I am so proud to be featured on her debut album that is out today alongside the wonderful wonderful @rothkostringquartet

For your GRAMMY consideration for first round votes. This is one of the things in my life I’m most proud of. I would be so grateful if you considered giving it a listen.

Violoncelliste et compositrice trans, @hapacello a souhaité écrire une oeuvre marquante afin de témoigner aussi bien de la puissance des tragédies qui submergent les vies des personnes trans, mais aussi de leur résilience, de leurs joies et de leurs espoirs.
L’œuvre pour solistes, chœur et orchestre est baignée dans des atmosphères généralement élégiaques, empreintes de recueillement et de contemplations, parfois aussi d’intensité vibrante. La musique puissamment émotionnelle porte avec dignité le message, scandé haut et fort, d’une reconnaissance de la communauté trans et de son intégration dans une humanité complète et unifiée dans ses micro particularités.

Recently answered the incredibly soul crushing question of my favorite album of all time for @music_connection -The album that was on repeat when I wrote Trans Requiem was hands down this one. I said everything I wanted in this article, but it all basically comes down to the incredibly rare quality of musical honesty which comes in handfuls with @adriannelenker - thank you to @drowned1nsound for taking me off the ledge several times when choosing this album from EVERY RECORDING MADE EVER. You can listen to her album and Trans Requiem @newamrecords wherever you like!
