Since his incredible breakthrough in 2011, when his debut album held the no. 1 position in the UK Classical charts for a breathtaking 28 weeks, MILOŠ has built an impressive international career by performing solo recitals and concertos at most of the world’s leading concert venues. His six studio albums have sold the equivalent of over half a million copies and conquered the classical album charts in multiple territories, earning him a Classical BRIT, Echo Klassik and two Gramophone Awards. Not to mention worldwide critical acclaim, BBC Music Magazine included him in “Six of the Best Classical Guitarists of the Past Century” and The New York Times cited him as “one of the most exciting and communicative classical guitarists today.” TRACKLISTDomenico Scarlatti 1685-17571 Sonata in D minor K 32 2:52Antonio Vivaldi 1678–1741Concerto for Flute, Strings and Basso continuo No. 2 in G minor “La notte” RV 4392 VI Allegro 2:16 Arrangement: Michael LewinJean-Philippe Rameau 1683–17643 The Arts and the Hours 5:15Arrangement: Michael LewinGeorge Frideric Handel 1685–1759Suite de Pièces pour le Clavecin No. 1 HWV 434 4 :074 IV MenuetArrangement: Michael LewinAntonio Vivaldi 1678–1741Concerto for 4 Violins, Cello, Strings and Basso continuo in B minor RV 580Arrangement: Michael Lewin5 I Allegro 3:53Silvius Leopold Weiss 1687–17506 Passacaille in D major WeissSW 18.6 3:36Domenico Scarlatti 1685–17577 Sonata in F minor K 466 (L 118) 5:12 Arrangement: Michael LewinAntonio Vivaldi 1678–1741Concerto for 4 Violins, Cello, Strings and Basso continuo in B minor RV 580Arrangement: Michael Lewin8 III Allegro 3:21Johann Sebastian Bach 1685–1750Partita for Solo Violin No. 2 in D minor BWV 10049 V Chaconne 15 :11Alessandro Marcello 1669–1747Concerto for Oboe, Strings and Basso continuo in D minor 10 II Adagio 3 :42Luigi Boccherini 1743–1805Quintet for Guitar, 2 Violins, Viola and Cello No. 4in D major G 44811 IV Fandango 3:50after the 2nd Movement of String Quintet in D Major “Del Fandango” G 341Silvius Leopold Weiss 1687–175012 Fantasie in C minor WeissSV9 2:20François Couperin 1668–173313 Les Barricades mystérieuses 3 :43The Mysterious Barricadesfrom Pièces de clavecin, Second livre, ordre n° 6Antonio Vivaldi 1678–1741Trio Sonata for Violin, Lute and Basso continuo in C major RV 8214 II Larghetto 3:51 Arrangement: Michael LewinThis album is broadcasted with the permission of Crossover Media Music Promotion (Zachary Swanson and Amanda Bloom).

Applauded by The Washington Post as “a perfect encapsulation of today’s trends in chamber music,” and by The New Yorker as “independent-minded,” the GRAMMY nominated PUBLIQuartet’s modern interpretation of chamber music makes them one of the most dynamic artists of their generation. The ensemble's Jannina Norpoth and Curtis Stewart join Garrett (1:00:00) to unpack the music and inspiration behind their latest album, "What Is American". Scott continues his Pride Month-inspired musical picks with a work by Angela Morley, Garrett highlights orchestral music by Janelle Monáe, and the guys unpack the latest, including Opera America's scathing report on racial diversity, the recent decision made by SCOTUS, and more.
