I totally got chills watching that performance at the Barbican ! The way Davóne Tines brought Julius Eastman's music to life was like nothing I've ever seen before - so raw and emotional, it felt like we were witnessing something truly special . And I love how he worked with Seth Parker Woods on some of the arrangements, it's clear they're totally on the same wavelength . That last piece, Gay Guerilla, was MIND-BLOWING - the tension building up to that climax was insane ! What really got me, though, was seeing all these people in the crowd totally entranced by Eastman's music... it's like he's been waiting for them all this time . Can't wait to see what else Tines has in store for us
Davóne Tines's performance at the Barbican was super cool ... I mean, it really showed off his skills as a performer and arranger. But, for real tho, some of those arrangements felt like they were missing something. Like, having more cellos would've taken it to another level, you know? Still, it's awesome that he's helping spread Julius Eastman's music far and wide. The Holy Presence of Joan d'Arc was straight fire ... I mean, the way Davóne's voice just owned that stage was amazing! Can't wait to see what other projects he's working on now
