What peopple say about INSIDE the MUSIC, 20th century revelations.
" you are an inspiration.....it's a very thrilling cd! I was excited about it from the first listening. "--Carson Farley, composer
"wow!" D. Moore
"I want to see you smash that mirror!"
Grace, Seattle
"very educational..it would make an excellent introduction to this type of music for the layman listener." Landa, Seattle
Ann Cummings is unique in the classical music world. She presents classical music to be seen as well as heard. A pianist who offers exciting, athletic technique, a sensitive, graceful touch, and a brilliant variety of repertoire, Cummings epitomizes the virtuoso pianist.
Her release of Inside the Music, 20th century revelations follows a style of recording similar to John Cage's album, Variations IV from a live performance at the Feigen-Palmer Gallery, Los Angeles, CA. There is commentary as well as music. The CD also has a programmatic theme based upon Free Will.
Cummings has toured nationally and internationally into Canada. Additionally, Cummings is often featured live on public radio to perform and discuss her work.
