A Man in a Room, Gambling

With roots in improvisational jazz, English cellist/composer Gavin Bryars writes unpredictable yet extremely evocative works. We hear tracks from his 1992 sound collaboration with the late sculptor Juan Munoz, "A Man in a Room, Gambling." Also, we feature the music of Ohio-based "avocational" composer Rick Sowash, who celebrates his 59th birthday today.
