This recording of American music for flute and guitar, presents a cultural and musical cross-section of works composed between 1966 and 1996 by some of the most talented and varied American composers active today. Beaser’s folk-based songs, Schickele’s retrospective pieces, Liebermann’s neo-romantic Sonata, Tower’s ethereal Snow Dreams and Riley’s musically eclectic Latin-flavoured Cantos Desiertos demonstrate that vibrant, colourful music transcends categories and styles.
