Song of the day: “Angry Concrete”
Sep 26 2006 | Comments 0
One thing I love about this job of sharing myself is that people are inspired to share themselves back. I got a MySpace message today suggesting I check out British classical composer Caroline M. Breece, whose piece Angry Concrete deals with themes I’ve had to grapple with in my life.
I’m glad I found her; her music is so beautiful and haunting. When I was at Oberlin, the composition students at the music conservatory were incredibly brilliant, and I envied them. Oberlin was great because being a fan of classical music didn’t make you a nerd; it made you interesting. I admit I haven’t listened to contemporary classical in quite some time, but hearing Breece’s music has reminded me why I once loved it.
