Together Again is a project where 6 producers and 12 arrangers collaborated with 44 musicians to reimagine 17 classical pieces recorded at home mostly from lockdown. This project took exactly a year to complete and captures the essence of what an artist endures while their world is shut down. Despite the setbacks that we encountered, the TRRcollective is proud to present the album that could be made no other way. 'TOGETHER AGAIN' 2020
