Daugherty : Music :: Lichtenstein : Art
The music of Michael Daugherty is deeply rooted in the American psyche because of his focus on pop culture. In an analogous way to the pop art style of some modern visual arts, Daugherty uses familiar motifs and patterns to create soundscapes that are quite evocative. ...

Close Encounters Of The Colorado Kind
In its continuing exploration of American music and lesser-known U.S. orchestras, the budget label Naxos has given us one of its most provocative and innovative recordings to date. Michael Daugherty, the man behind the "Superman"-inspired "Metropolis Symphony", gives ...

A real pleasure
Hong Kong audiences know Jerry Junkin as the director of our very own Wind Philharmonia. But Junkin's regular gig, back in the states, is as conductor of both the University of Texas Wind Ensemble and the Dallas Wind Symphony. It's the former group performing on ...

Piccoloists take note
This is a rare and wonderful survey of modern music for piccolo, either alone or with various accompaniments. The music is all in the moderate range of modern style and should be accessible to the open-minded and attentive listener. The playing is technically flawless ...

Intoxicating
Another superior effort by these extremely talented musicians. Ethos creates a rhythmic "summit" of many times and cultures in a way that reinforces the unifying force of percussion as our first form of expression and communication. The performers connect with each ...

a necessary, and excellent, sampler
I've been aware of the Kronos Quartet since WHITE MAN SLEEPS, but never took the plunge until now. What to do, when they've "released" so many records in the meantime? This sampler is the (near) perfect answer. It contains selections from 10 different albums. This ...
