Description
* In 2015, composer Michael Zev Gordon took up the idea of writing musical diary entries, which subsequently spawned this ongoing series of small pieces for solo piano. With most written in a single day, with only minor subsequent refinements, Gordon beautifully captures a feeling, a nuance, an image and, as is the nature of a diary, often with personal associations. Cellist Joseph Houston beautifully captures Gordon's reoccurring themes of the bitter-sweet waltz, unwavering stillness, elegiac simplicity, folk-like dances and fleeting brilliance.
