Avant-garde classical meets jazz and rock on David Sanford: Black Noise, the latest release from BMOP/sound. The eponymous composition, commissioned by BMOP and premiered in March 2017, takes inspiration from a pastiche of contemporary composers and film. Prayer: in Memoriam Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. honors the life of the civil rights leader and his impact on the composer and the composer's hometown, Pittsburgh. Scherzo Grosso features cello soloist Matt Haimovitz in an orchestral reimagining of the original big band work.
