Camp Appeal
Thursday, July 24, 2008
Think the first radical musical work of the twentieth century -- Charles Ives' "Central Park In the Dark" -- minus ragtime, plus reggaeton. That's how composer Joshua Camp describes his new piece in honor of Brooklyn's Prospect Park. He joins us to talk about the piece, and will bring a band with unusual instrumentation to perform it live: two trombones, two violas, a violin and a vibraphone.
