American Highways Episode 19: Composing Rhythm: Ned McGowan
Ned McGowan, American composer living in Amsterdam, uses rhythm in bold and surprising ways. The subtlety of his compositions contrast with their wildness.
In this episode of American Highways, pianist Guy Livingston brings us a composer with a fascination for machines and industrial sounds. Plus, Ned McGowan has worked extensively with the Karnatic music of India, and we hear works influenced by his travels and collaborations on the subcontinent.
