...in, of all places, Muncie IN. Isn't he the pianist who put together the commission of Lowell Liebermann's 3rd Piano COncerto? Liebermann is a very "accessible" modern composer and very adept at the concerto form. Very entertaining, not afriad of big themes and devlopment. His 2nd concerto brought down the house a couple years ago here in Indy. I bet you heard the new 3rd you lucky dog.

I have a certain appreciation for Glass - though I find him a very mixed bag. I tend to prefer John Adams' brand of minimalism.

I'm not fmailiar with Higdon's early work. I have heard her large orchestral works - Blue Cathedral, City Scape and Concerto For Orchestra - live in concert with the local band. Dust off that CD, she is the real deal. Blue Cathedral was pretty special.
