Canzonas Americanas marries two postmodern forces – American composer/clarinetist ‘Derek Bermel’ and the contemporary chamber band ‘Alarm Will Sound’.
Sharing a joy for stylistic eclecticism, complexity, and clashing dissonances, they form a remarkable recording that combines Bermel’s wild range of instrumental colors with the tight rhythmic ensemble that his music demands.
