Falling Canons / Falling Trio

Falling Canons / Falling Trio

Kenneth Fuchs is one of America's<br>leading composers and his music<br>is performed worldwide. After<br>writing Falling Man, a work for<br>baritone voice and orchestra<br>based on the post-9/11 novel by<br>Don DeLillo, Fuchs explored the<br>principal theme in his rigorously<br>developed Falling Canons for solo<br>piano. Falling Trio grows out of<br>the same theme, and from its<br>ethereal opening presents a series<br>of seven fantasy variations. String<br>Quartet No. 5 is an exciting, large-scale work that explores the<br>contrapuntal possibilities of a<br>single 'American' theme
