Spicy/Sweet Sounds

Evening Music | May 6, 2010
Jacob Ter Veldhuis, better known as Jacob TV, began his career as a rock musician but is presently known for his compositions and use of electronics in his music, utilizing sound bytes from speeches, commercials and talk shows. His form of musical expression has made him one of the most performed European composers of our generation. There was also an entire three-day JacobTV Festival here in New York during May 2007. “I pepper my music with sugar,” he says of his compositions. Tonight, we hear his Capriccio. Also music from Aaron Jay Kernis, Jean Sibelius and Philip Glass.
