November 2014 New Releases (Special Podcast)




New Sounds from WNYC show

Summary: <p>New from November 2014, listen to some new music featuring the piano--two contrasting pieces by composer/pianist Tomasz Trzcinski.  There's also Philip Glass' Piano Etude #17 performed by Maki Namekawa to celebrate his recently completed 20 etudes, and the "Undine" movement from Anthony Davis' Balinese gamelan inspired "Wayang V," featuring the composer on the piano with the Boston Modern Orchestra Project. </p> <p>Then, cross over to the other side of the world to hear some trios. Trio Mediaeval, a group of female vocalists based in Norway, performs its new arrangement of the Office of St. Thorlak, the Icelandic saint from the 12th century. Listen also to a hypnotic track from a trio called Equilibrium, comprised of a Norwegian vocalist, Belgian clarinetist, and Danish guitarist. Rounding out this special edition of New Sounds is a new track by bass guitarist Matt Skellenger and his band.</p> <p>PROGRAM #3667 November 2014 New Releases (First aired on 12/1/2014)  </p> <p>ARTIST(S)</p> <p>RECORDING</p> <p>CUT(S)</p> <p>SOURCE</p> <p>Maki Namekawa</p> <p>Philip Glass: The Complete Piano Etudes</p> <p>Etude No. 17, excerpt</p> <p>Orange Mountain Music<br><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Philip-Glass-Complete-Piano-Etudes/dp/B00OL5NJ2G">Amazon</a></p> <p>Tomasz Trzcinski</p> <p>Piano Exploration, Vol. 1: Sounds &amp; Waves</p> <p>Waves, Episode 6 [2:35]</p> <p>SilkNote Records<br><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Piano-Exploration-Vol-Sounds-Waves/dp/B00JYDHAGG">Amazon</a></p> <p>Maki Namekawa</p> <p>Philip Glass: The Complete Piano Etudes</p> <p>Etude No. 17 [6:26]</p> <p>Orange Mountain Music<br><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Philip-Glass-Complete-Piano-Etudes/dp/B00OL5NJ2G">Amazon</a></p> <p>Tomasz Trzcinski</p> <p>Piano Exploration, Vol. 1: Sounds &amp; Waves</p> <p>Sounds &amp; Waves [4:21]</p> <p>SilkNote Records<br><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Piano-Exploration-Vol-Sounds-Waves/dp/B00JYDHAGG">Amazon</a></p> <p>Boston Modern Orchestra Project (BMOP)</p> <p>Anthony Davis: Notes from the Underground</p> <p>Wayang V II.
