On Monday night, music virtuosos Joanna Newsom and Philip Glass performed together at San Francisco's Warfield Theater as part of Glass' Days and Nights Festival, which served as a benefit for Big Sur's Henry Miller Memorial Library. Joined by violinist Tim Fain, the pair tackled selections from both of their discographies, though Newsom also used the opportunity to debut a new song called 'The Diver's Wife'. You can now hear a recording of said song at New Wave Women (via Pitchfork).
The concert's setlist (via All Shook Down):
1. 'France' (Glass, Newsom, Fain; from Glass' The Screens)
2. 'Sadie' (Newsom and Fine; from Newsom's The Milk-Eyed Mender)
