Laurie Anderson live tonight in Milan: watch her Tiny Desk performance

Laurie Anderson will perform tonight, May 29, at the Triennale in Milan in a solo show. She'll then return on July 7 alongside Sexmob to perform at the Arena Santa Giuliana in Perugia as part of Umbria Jazz.
Meanwhile, the American artist – whom we recently met for this interview – recently starred in a new Tiny Desk Concert at NPR's offices in Washington, performing for NPR and NPR Music staff. Joining her on stage were violist Martha Mooke and multi-instrumentalist Doug Wieselman, a member of Sexmob.
Watch Laurie Anderson's full Tiny Desk performance below.

The five-song set traced various phases of her artistic career, from the early days of “Big Science” to her most recent compositions. Anderson performed “Let X=X”, taken from her debut album, the title track of the recent live record made with Sexmob, and a few songs from “Amelia”, her latest studio work.
In introducing the performance, NPR highlighted the musician's ability to give audiences back an image of their own lives “in all our absurdity and our splendor,” calling her artistic visions more relevant than ever. The concert bears this out, delivering an intense, measured performance that showcases the reflective, narrative quality of her music.

Setlist

• Let X=X
• The Letter
