Product details

The NZTrio presents music by award-winning Australian composer Stuart Greenbaum. The Greenbaum sound has clear connections to jazz, pop and minimalism but goes beyond these important influences: 'I often conceive of music in terms of journeys, but I also believe that music should be appreciable as pure, abstract sound in time. Either way, my music aims to evoke an atmosphere apart from the routine of modern life. At times, I think we lose a sense of wonderment at our earthly surrounds. I believe in the need to cultivate space in a world increasingly filled with commercialism, light and noise pollution and 24/7 thinking.'

Duration: 76 min.

CD liner includes programme notes, composer biography and performer details.
