I attended a solo piano recital tonight. It's been awhile since I have been to a piano recital as I more often go to the symphony or other ensemble performances. The gem of tonight's program was a delightful piece by William Bolcom (b. 1938). I'm always interested in learning about new (modern) composers and it's a treat when their music is also engaging. This piece has 3 movements: (I) Old Man Adam, (II) The Eternal Feminine, (III) The Serpent's Kiss. Take a listen and see what you think! [I can only find a 2-piano version on YouTube. These performers make it feel a bit pesante to me.]
Other performers seem to have a lighter touch.
