Schirmer Web site).

American spiritual Marilyn Nonken plays new piano works, investigated by KEITH BRAMICH CRI CD 877 American pianist Marilyn Nonken plays four works written for her at the end of the twentieth century. They share the rhythmic complexity and abstract late 20th century language which will be familiar if you know the music of Michael Finnissy (born 1947), whose English Country Tunes , made a big impression on the pianist. Chelsea Square (1999) by Jeff Nichols (born 1957) takes its name from a poem by Douglas Crase which conjures up an image of millennial Manhattan. The music is rather lyrical, and has a certain stillness [ listen track 1, 12:13-13:08 ]. Nonken, writing her own CD notes, describes it as having a 'quirky, riddle-like structure' and says that it rewards multiple hearings. Jason Eckardt's Echoes' White Veil (1996) sounds chaotic, jazzy and fragmented. It was apparently written without barlines, and, inspired by Echoes , a prose poem by W S Merwin, beginning 'Everything we hear is an echo', it explores the relationships between the past, the present and the future. In North American Spirituals (1998), Finnissy uses the songs that Tippett featured in

The Passing Measures (which takes its name from a pair of dances for virginal by William Byrd) is a quasi-concerto for bass clarinet accompanied by chorus and amplified orchestra. The forty-minute work is a monumental musical environment, emotionally charged and meditative. The So-called Laws of Nature , written for the So Percussion Ensemble, is a rock 'n' roll romp on pieces of junk metal, wood planks, and drums, heard here in its entirety for the first time. Another new work, described by the composer as a showcase for Alarm Will Sound, fills out this evening of excitement.

Tristan Murail (b. 1947) explores the piano itself, finding within its resonance, and bringing inescapably to our ears, harmonics and microtones - notes to hear although they have not been played - the supposed unavailability of which compounds the instrument's reputation as an equal-tempered anachronism, little changed since its heyday in the 19th Century. Murail does not epouse the modern fashionable 'tortures' of the precious instrument; clusters (Cowell) preparations (Cage) using the piano's case and pianist's body for their percussive possibilities (Rzewski) electrical distortion (Stockhausen), nor does Nonken have to delve into its innards to 'scrape and pinch' the strings; how ungainly pianists often look doing so!
