Synopsis

Harrison is one of the few American composers who has applied Eastern musical modes (and instruments) to American music. His Suite for Symphonic Strings (1961) is a playful accretion of Renaissance stamping dance with a standard canon and fugue structure. Ung's Inner Voices (1986) reflects Ung's Cambodian background, even though there isn't any Cambodian music in it. It's a dazzling work (we need to hear more of this guy's music). McPhee, who died in 1964, provides us with a strangely minimalistic Tabuh-Tabuhan (1936). It's based on Balinese gamelan playing. Hard to believe that Reich was just a toddler when this came out. --Paul Cook
