It was a pleasant surprise to come across this excerpt of a performance of my trio, In Search of Planet X, which took place at the University of Pennsylvania in 2013. Part of Penn’s “Whale of the Voice” series (a play on George Crumb’s iconic work), this series featured music of composition faculty—past and present—and alumni. This splendid interpretation features my dear friends Bill Kalinkos (clarinet), Yuki Numata (violin), and Matt Bengtson (piano). A performance of the complete work, also featuring Bill and Yuki, along with pianist Michael Djupstrom, can be found on YouTube.
