(Anton Batagov (www.batagov.com))
Anton Batagov is a young Russian artist, both keyboard player and composer. Not only is he the first Russian pianist to have taken on works by John Cage, Morton Feldman, Steve Reich, and Philip Glass, but he also self-produces electronic and experimental works, and releases them on his own private label. Hear pieces from Batagov's CD "Music for Piano" on this edition of New Sounds. Plus, there’s a work by George Crumb, "Eine Kleine Mitternacht Musik," based on Thelonius Monk’s “Round Midnight." Pianist Simone Dinnerstein treats us to a live performance of the piece in the WNYC studio.
