FROM THE LINER NOTES:
Breath tranformed to tone. A thin sliver of bamboo vibrates, fingers flash, and composers call each of us to hear sounds emanating from their souls. For me, this MMC recording represents the sixth CD in a journey to learn and perform music for clarinet written by over twenty-five American composers. This odyssey represents more than a decade of partnership with MMC and a lifetime of friendship with William Thomas McKinley.
The works on this CD seem to speak with me personally about openings into the unconscious; meditation on basic intervals of tension, poignancy, and resignation; qualities of sadness; and the weirdly weaving whirls with our partners in life's dances.
- Richard Stoltzman, 2007 |
