On this week’s Modern Notebook with Tyler Kline: Mozart might not have composed any music for the marimba, but we might get an idea of what it would’ve sounded like from the Marimba Concerto by Kevin Puts - a work which he says reflects his love of Mozart’s Piano Concertos.
Then, we’ll hear pianist Miki Sawada perform the music of Brendon Randell-Myers; also, a piece titled The Green Fuse by James Wilson; and this work by Hannah Lash for wind quintet titled “Leander and Hero.”
Plus music by Nico Muhly, Sarah Gibson, Hania Rani, Dai Fujikura, Andy Akiho, and others; and performances by pianist Vanessa Wagner, marimba soloist Ji Su Jung, violinist Mari Samuelsen, Chineke! Orchestra, The City of Tomorrow, and more.
Hour 2
- The Green Fuse by James Wilson.
- Brendon Randall-Myers’ Shadow.
- Leander and Hero by Hannah Lash.
