Remembering - Solo and Chamber Music by American composer and pianist George Flynn. All the compositions on this disc "remember" scenes and experiences of my earlier years (American Summer, Remembering, Fuguing) as well as composers who influenced me (Remembering, Toward the Light, Fuguing). And one piece (Forms of Flight) "remembers" its source - my longest chamber work, American Rest. Hence the title of this disc. -George Flynn. George Flynn (b. 1937) chaired Musicianship and Composition at DePaul University (Chicago) for 25 years, and taught composition at Columbia University in the mid-1960s while he experimented and performed in New York with artists of the avant-garde Fluxus Movement, John Cage and Ilhan Mimaroglu. Since then, Flynn has composed over 150 works in all media, including over six hours of piano solo music, and has recorded and performed new music for many years in the US and Europe. The Boston Globe called Flynn's 2011 Tanglewood performance of his "Pieces of Night" "a furiously virtuosic, brilliantly chiseled 50-minute monument to Vietnam-era insomnia, turbulence both historic and timely." Produced by George Flynn and Bradley Parker-Sparrow for The Southport Composers Series.
