Flow State - Bruce Brubaker
Today’s recommendation is presented by Atlas.co, which prints maps with your personalized trip destinations. It’s a great way to commemorate a life-changing adventure for family & friends, and the prints start at $20. Remove adsGood morning. Today we’re listening to Bruce Brubaker, an American pianist from Des Moines, Iowa. Brubaker studied at Juilliard and applies postmodern concepts to his work, for example treating musical scores as “texts” in themselves.¹ He has a special fondness for minimalist composers, whose ostensibly simple repetitions can, in time, reveal deep truths. We’re first playing Inner Cities, Brubaker’s 2003 collection of John Adams and Alvin Curran pieces. We’re also playing his 2015 record Glass Piano, where his interpretations reveal the latent drama in Philip Glass’s refrains. Inner Cities - Bruce Brubaker (80m, no vocals) Glass Piano - Bruce Brubaker (60m, no vocals) Have a really nice Wednesday.
