Fighting "The (Music) Man"

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
Flexible and inclusive, those are just a few words to describe the members of Sequenza. Comprised of piano, violin, and cello, the group previews their upcoming performances at Bargemusic with host John Schaefer and offer us a sample of their inspired music-making. Also on the show is Kyle Gann, composer, musicologist, and music critic. The innovative ways composers have been able to resist commercialization is the topic of discussion for this well-rounded, intense man.
