{"product_id":"passion-713746314620","title":"Passion","description":"Big expressive gestures, heavy basslines, pop and rock influences, jagged dissonance and New York-style \"downtown\" noise are all signatures of composer Jeffrey Brooks' vibrant and electric music. As a longtime friend and associate of Bang on a Can's founding composers (Michael Gordon, David Lang and Julia Wolfe), whom he first met while a student at Yale in the mid-1980s, Jeffrey Brooks might be best known for his wind ensemble work Dreadnought (1996), but more significantly, he is one of the few modern classical composers with a penchant for chasing rhythm in a way that even urban dancefloor DJs can understand. The Passion collects three of his most compelling works: After the Treewatcher (2012), Capriccio on the Departure of a Beloved Brother (2015) and the epic title piece (2017). Featuring edgy, raucous performances by the Bang on a Can All-Stars and the New York-based large ensemble Contemporaneous (conducted by David Bloom), the recording is, in essence, a tribute to the lasting power of friendship, and a triumph of the human spirit.","brand":"Cantaloupe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46365918199891,"sku":"2158959X","price":19.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0732\/1937\/5187\/files\/3912011_d43415c4-163a-4749-82f9-e1d28f882252.jpg?v=1790191054","url":"https:\/\/www.deepdiscount.com\/products\/passion-713746314620","provider":"Deep Discount","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
