About
NPR Music's Tiny Desk concert series, now operating as Tiny Desk (home) concerts, continues to showcase intimate performances from a variety of artists. One recent standout performance featured Canadian composer and musician Owen Pallett, known for their work as a violinist, vocalist, and collaborator with Arcade Fire. Pallett's unique Tiny Desk set saw them recording four songs in multiple stages on different instruments, creating layered and captivating versions of their compositions. This approach provided a glimpse into Pallett's innovative musical style, which blends classical influences with indie sensibilities. With a background deeply rooted in classical violin and a diverse career spanning film scoring, opera composition, and collaborations with a range of artists, Pallett's Tiny Desk (home) concert was a testament to their versatility and creativity as a musician. Additionally, their contributions to various mainstream and alternative music projects highlight Pallett's wide-reaching impact on the music industry.
