Headlining Fusebox Festival’s 2026 biennial fest, Dirty Projectors and the Austin Symphony Orchestra will perform David Longstreth’s 2025 chamber work Song Of The Earth. First performed by the Los Angeles Philharmonic in a sold-out show at Walt Disney Concert Hall in 2024, Long Center has joined together with Fusebox and the Austin Symphony Orchestra to make this special Austin premiere a reality, conducted by Peter Bay. Originally commissioned by Berlin-based chamber orchestra s t a r g a z e, on April 16 you’re invited to dive into the expanse of what The New Yorker describes as “an album that captures the beauty, and the peril, of nature.” David Longstreth’s chamber work, Song Of The Earth, performed by Dirty Projectors and s t a r g a z e, was released in 2025 on Nonesuch / New Amsterdam Records / Transgressive Records. Longstreth’s scored music has been commissioned by Bang On A Can, Third Coast Percussion, the Barbican London, the Helsinki Festival, Elbphilharmonie Hamburg and the Nation Concert Hall, Dublin.
David Longstreth is also the founder and songwriter behind Dirty Projectors, a mainstay in the pop and indie rock worlds since the band’s inception in 2002. Two of the group’s albums, Bitte Orca (2009) and Swing Lo Magellan (2012), are widely regarded as classics of the 2000s and 2010s.
