Generally recognized as the father of the American Neo-Romantic movement in music, David Del Tredici has received numerous awards, including the Pulitzer Prize. His recent energetic output for piano solo is due partly to a close artistic collaboration with Marc Peloquin, resulting specifically in S/M Ballade, a "pianistic terror". The finale of Gotham Glory is another virtuoso test, Del Tredici's celebration of New York closing with a Grand Fantasy derived from a waltz by Emil Waldteufel. This is the first of three volumes of David Del Tredici's complete piano music, with it's generously rewarding combination of achingly expressive romanticism, subtle references and ever-present sense of covert and overt drama. Pianist Marc Peloquin is the creator and curator of KeyedUp Music Project, concerts dedicated to musical explorations with piano as the essential element. In these programs, Peloquin brings audiences new perspectives through a thematic approach to repertoire and the juxtaposition of works from different periods and styles.
