Post-Minimalism? - This Week's MFOM (#106)

This week's MUSIC FROM OTHER MINDS program 106 features a new release from Paris on the trAce label of what the producers refer to as "Post-Minimalism". I just don't think the term applies, but it sounds catchy. There are some good pieces in this 2-CD release 19 composers from 4 countries. We add some related pieces by French composer/performer Hervé Zénouda, and end with an early string quartet (his first) by the Irish composer Ian Wilson.

Steve Peters:  Ancestral Memory (1996)
Ryan Brown:  Bansky (2004)
Dan Becker:  Gridlock (1994)
     ---  trAce 024 (Paris 2007) Post-Minimalism

Hervé Zénouda:  Le Mystère de la Fleur d'Or  for quartet of electric guitars -
     ---                     trAce 008 (Paris 1999)
                     :  Le Temps de Métamorphoses (Suite for two pianos)
                              trAce 015 (Paris 2002)
