Extractions: BOLCOM, William b 26 May '38, Seattle WA) Pianist and composer. He discovered recordings of Ives and Stravinsky as a child; later admired Boulez and Berio but found his own eclectic style drenched in popular music: his string quartet '65 won only second prize at the Paris Conservatoire perhaps because it alluded to rock'n'roll; his second violin sonata '76 has a last movement in memory of Joe Venuti. He wrote a piano concerto for the USA Bicentennial, etc. His recordings of piano music by Scott Joplin and others helped spark the early '70s revival of interest in ragtime (LPs on Nonesuch included Heliotrope Bouquet Pastimes and Piano Rags ; he also recorded the piano music of George Gershwin). He wrote his own rags ( Plays His Own Rags on Jazzology) and co-authored a book about Eubie Blake. He was on the music faculty at the U. Of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Many of his 'classical' compositions have been recorded, e.g. Sym. No. 4 (including a setting of Theodore Roethke's poem 'The Rose', sung by his wife, mezzo Joan Morris) and Session 1 (a notated jam session) '88 on New World by the St Louis SO with Leonard Slatkin.

Lowell Liebermann has set many American poets, Langston Hughes, Melville, Stephen Crane, and even Longfellow, so it was a pleasure to hear his Whitman settings, Out of the cradle endlessly rocking (1992) and On the beach at night On the beach at nigh Sea Drift the radiant sisters the Pleiades with a mock tango insouciance, a reminder of the South American songs to come.

Extractions: Here is what they posted on the WNYC web site: Naxos, the low-budget, high-volume classical record label, has been one of the few success stories in an embattled corner of the record industry over the last decade. The company is quietly expanding its reach in the music world, and a major new project has it commissioning, recording, and promoting a series of ten new string quartets from the British composer Sir Peter Maxwell Davies. But is the label (or its artists) making any money? Justin Davidson, classical music critic of Newsday, drops by to shed some light on the topic.
