In an era where it's not uncommon for a superstar act to wait three or four years between releases, it's astonishing to realize that Carole King wrote and recorded a strong follow-up to 1971's bazillion-selling TAPESTRY that was released before the year was up! MUSIC was a big commercial success, but anything would pale next to the ecstatic commercial response to TAPESTRY, which was still high in the charts when this follow-up was released. The generically-titled MUSIC didn't spawn any hits as big as "It's Too Late" or "So Far Away," but with several decades' hindsight, it's clear that TAPESTRY was no fluke; in its more low-key way, MUSIC is every bit as fine an album. Highlights include two jazz-tinged tracks, "Brother Brother" and the waltz-time title track, which features a remarkable saxophone solo by Curtis Amy. "Growing Away From Me" and the mournful "It's Going To Take Some Time" are closer to TAPESTRY's introspective tunes. As on that album, King includes an old Goffin-King classic, a thoroughly reworked "Some Kind of Wonderful."
This is a 12-track collection from pop songwriting icon Carole King.

This opera, composed in 1975 and premiered in 1976, is scored for four principal actors, 12 singers doubling as dancers and actors, a solo violinist, and an amplified ensemble of keyboards, winds and voices. It is imbued with the postmodern spirit both in its non-linear, poetic, mystic narrative and the floating, eternal world created by the shifting, mathematically precise patterns of Philip Glass' modal music. There are three primary visual sets linked to three musical themes that recur within the work: trains (recalling the metaphors Einstein used to illustrate the theory of relativity, and with which he played as a child), a trial setting (modern life and modern science examined), and a spaceship (a metaphor for transcendence, and/or an escape from nuclear disaster). Also, Einstein himself appears midway between the orchestra and the stage as a violinist (his hobby) and as observer/witness. There are also additional spoken texts written by Christopher Knowles, Samuel M. Johnson and Lucinda Childs, which appear in various arrangements for single and multiple voices. This work locates itself as a midpoint between the composer's early-'70s work, linking rhythmic and harmonic structures and his later series of operas and vocal works and film scores employing expanded narrative and/or timbral experiments. ~ "Blue" Gene Tyranny
This is a pivotal work in the oeuvre of Philip Glass. It is the first, longest and most famous of the composer's operas, yet it is in almost every way unrepresentative of them. "Einstein" was, by design, a glorious "one-shot" - a work that invented it's context, form and language and then explored them so exhaustively that further development would have been redundant. But by its own radical example, "Einstein" prepared the way (it gave permission) for much of what has happened in music theater since its premiere. It broke all the rules of opera. It was in four interconnected acts & five hours long with no intermissions (the audience was invited to wander in and out at liberty during performances). The acts were intersticed by what Glass and Wilson called "knee plays"- brief interludes that also provided time for scenery changes. "Einstein" sometimes seemed like a study in sensory overload, meaning everything and nothing.

Sinfonietta is 78 minutes of nonstop power. Organist Josh Perschbacher uses the pipe organ like a conductor uses an orchestra; carefully crafting orchestral scores into musical art. Each symphonic transcription is faithful to the original but calls upon the vast recourses of the pipe organ to add new vision to these masterpieces. Once heard, the listener might forget these pieces existed for anything other than the pipe organ.
