  • Description

    Lonesome Roads is a CD of music by the 30-year old American composer Dan Visconti. The music is a nod to the American century and includes a diverse range of music, such as the minimalist Bassoon solo piece Ramble and Groove; the blues-soaked string quartet Black Bend; the Neo-Romantics Lawless Airs and the high modernist piece Fractured Jams. Then there are pieces like Low Country Haze or Lonesome Roads that either meld or ignore these mostly obsolete distinctions for music and are plain rapturous to hear.
