For Your Consideration

Four XAS Recordings in Running for Grammy Nominations

XAS Records, the label of the PRISM Quartet, has four recordings in the running for 2021 Grammy nominations: The Anchoress by David Serkin Ludwig; Vamp by Anna Weesner; Prized Possessions by Viet Cuong; and Notturno, a solo album from PRISM's soprano saxophonist Timothy McAllister. We're happy to share the tracks with our friends and NARAS colleagues, and invite you to give a listen.
