The Joy of Classical Music – Ep 81 - Curated by Gabriel Vicens - 16-12-2024
We featured New York based Puerto Rican composer Gabriel Vicens in a special spot that sat between episodes 43 and 44. He returns to curate this episode. “I’ve curated a selection of pieces that explore approaches concerned with repetition, dissonance, stillness, space, and introspection. I’m interested in how we experience the flow of time when listening to music and how silence or perhaps quietness creates intimacy, evoking thoughts, memories, and emotions”. Maurice Ravel - Gaspard de la nuit, M. 55: II. Le Gibet Claude Debussy - Preludes/Book 1, L. 117: 6. Des pas sur la neige Arnold Schoenberg - 6 Kleine Klavierstücke Op. 19 Anton Webern - Three Pieces for Cello and Piano, Op. 11 Galina Ustvolskaya - Trio For Clarinet, Violin And Piano: 2. Dolce John Cage - Two2: No. 2, 1'55.635 and No. 4, 5'23 György Kurtag - Játékok VI, 50-51, In memoriam András Mihály Harold Budd - Veil of Orpheus Peter Garland - Nostalgia for the Southern Cross Morton Feldman - Palais de Mari

It’s a mellower, more assured album; Kiwanuka seems less interested in topping the charts than in creating a refuge from the noise of modern life.
