Search - Conrad Tao :: Pictures

Taking the vivid, heterogeneous landscape of Mussorgsky s Pictures at an Exhibition as his inspiration, American pianist/composer Conrad Tao - described by the New York Times as a musician of probing intellect and open-hearted vision - here weaves a fascinating program of imagery and evocation, one which also considers the concept of memory in all its complexity. In addition to his own composition A Walk (for Emilio), Tao presents works by some of modern music s most influential names, creating a vast and absorbing tapestry of sounds, rhythms and techniques.
