Great Composer. Great Performances. Great CD.. William Kraft is easily one of the top 2 or 3 American composers from the 2nd half of the 20th Century (and now into the 21st as he is still composing). His music is bold, innovative, and above all, fun. His use of percussion is unrivaled. But then, the man is in the Percussive Arts Hall of Fame. Kraft's music is complex and easy to approach all at once. I have shared this music with those who are new to concert music and they flip. William Kraft's music is a treasure. The performances on this CD are done by those who are familiar with Kraft's music. Gloria Cheng is a Grammy winner. You probably won't be disappointed by this CD if it is your first of William Kraft's music.
Encounter with Genius. Long time friend of Stravinsky and of music in general gets his due. Who knew he was so gifted and why have we not heard these before? I've been listening to the Kandinsky for four days straight now. Wow, the thrill of it! All of the performers, and above all Gloria Cheng do a great job at bringing these works to light. Bravo!
