Detritus Hall: Conlon Nancarrow

Conlon Nancarrow - Study No. 5

If you're not familiar with Conlon, he was a communist. But that's not all! You can find more information about him here and here.

This is a delightful realization of his Study for Player Piano, Number 5.

Thanks to pianopera's adept use of the intertubes for this one.

About Detritus Hall

The companion site to The Detritus Review, Detritus Hall provides a more direct route to the music world we so often talk about—think of it as your virtual music hub, or hall, of the new and the undersung that rarely makes it into print, at least favorably. It provides a point of reference for those of you, like us, who don’t have unlimited access to the recorded world or those of us who can’t afford (or get paid) to attend every concert under the sun. Here, we supply the music mainly in video form, but we also supply download links and anything else we feel pertinent to a successful immersion into the world of musical modernism and beyond. As usual, we hope to incite meaningful dialog, because it’s our stance that the better we can listen to and talk about music, the richer our collective experience becomes. (Sorry critics, no snark, for the most part.)
