#2168: Inspired by Bach

New Sounds | May 24, 2010
New Sounds explores contemporary works inspired by the string music of J.S. Bach on tonight's edition. Among the highlights are Vladimir Martynov's L’Apres Midi du Bach, a witty take on Bach filtered through an Eastern European minimalist-spiritual musical language; and British composer Steve Martland's "Crossing The Border" which weaves jazz, folk, and rock into a dynamic and complex rhythmic structure.
