Private Dances

Evening Music | May 6, 2010
Author, critic, and professor Kyle Gann's musical tastes run far and wide; as a composer he's written microtonal and electronic works that take their cue from rebels like Harry Partch and Conlon Nancarrow. We sample some tracks from a recent Gann CD, Private Dances. Also, New York-based composer Stefania De Kenessey's "Magic Forest Dances," and the "Karelian Dances" of Finnish composer Uuno Klami.
