Description
America/Beautiful is a five-volume collection conceived, commissioned, and performed by pianist and arts advocate Min Kwon, comprising 76 new piano works by American composers inspired by "America the Beautiful." Kwon brings together a sweeping range of individual voices into a unified musical vision that invites listeners to experience the United States as a living, evolving cultural idea. The result is a deeply moving musical tapestry - a sonic portrait of the nation in all its complexity. Heard as a whole, the collection resists a single narrative, instead offering diverse perspectives that question and re-imagine the American experiment, bound together by the credo of E pluribus unum (out of many, one). As Kwon observes, "In spite of all the difficulties we face, there is still profound beauty, humanity, and possibility in this country." As the ideal partner for this bold, ambitious, and one-of-a-kind artistic undertaking, Delos celebrates the United States Semiquincentennial with this collection.
