Music from Copand House: Pierre Jalbert, "Secret Alchemy"

On January 16th, Music from Copland House released an album of music by Pierre Jalbert, entitled Secret Alchemy. Referring to Jalbert's piece of the same name, this album title also suggests Jalbert's uncanny ability to combine musical idioms, create a singular compositional voice that emerges as completely new. The album contain recordings of works composed over a span of 15 years, including Piano Trio No. 1 (1998), String Trio (2008), Crossings (2011), and the titular piece, Secret Alchemy (2012). Check out an excerpt of Jalbert's Piano Trio No. 1, which the American Record Guide called "a new masterwork", above; and Jalbert's NewMusicBox interview below.
