DCCXXVI. BRESNICK, Martin: Caprichos Enfáticos

DCCXXVI. BRESNICK, Martin (1946-       )

Caprichos Enfáticos (2007)
1. Farandole simple
2. Farandole of charlatans -- They don't know the way
3. Ravages of war
4. Farandole of politicians -- Against the common good
5. Farandole of the rabble
6. Strange devotion!
7. Farandole of believers -- Nothing. That is what it says
8. Farandole double
Lisa Moore, piano, percussion
Yale Percussion Group
(33:01)


The accompanying images are based on Goya's book of etchings Los Destastres de la Guerrra (The Disasters of War).

The way the musicians "replace and rotate" is uniquely ingenious.
