Biscardi - Biscardi: Piano Quintet/ The Viola Had Suddenly Become A Voice

In one way or another all of the works on this disc - spanning thirtythree years from 1972 through 2005 - reveal an ongoing aspect of my creative process that looks back in order to move forward. It's about being in the present by unravelling memories and feelings - both joyful and full of loss - from the past, writes American composer Chester Biscardi, a recipient of numerous prizes and fellowships including the Rome Prize and an Academy Award in Music.
