2019 Incredible Decades Disc 7
×
The final volume of the 2019 edition of Music@Menlo LIVE showcases a brilliant mosaic of musical
voices that illuminated the twentieth century’s final decade. Composers had a myriad of influences
in their ears, from the world’s folk traditions to rock and roll. While such luminaries as John Adams
helped us process the traumas of the past, a new generation looked anxiously and eagerly to a dawning
horizon. This final disc presents the uncompromising modernism, yesteryear Romanticism, and forward-
looking audacity of music at the millennium.
