KBACH's First Take

Kondonassis plays Reena Esmail


Listen Later

Prolific contemporary composer Reena Esmail has written a harp and percussion concerto in which Yolanda Kondonassis plays all the instruments. Called "Terra Infirma," it is a response to the recent Los Angeles fires in which Esmail was displaced. It has elements of poetry, choreography, and drama besides music. The album also has two other pieces by the composer and soloist. KBACH's Michael Keelan talked with Kondonassis. More details on the recording available at: Jensen ArtistsPhoto credit: Laura Watilo Blake
