QUICK KICKS

Kyle Gann, postclassical composer extraordinaire and fellow
ArtsJournal blogger, says he gets no kicks from public performances
of his music. So where does he get them? Alone, in the studio, writing his stuff. Here’s the stuff he
writes. We get our kicks from listening to it, especially his piano
studies. Stuff like “Nude Rolling Down an Escalator,” “Bud Ran Back Out” and “Folk
Dance for Henry Cowell.” And here’s something for adventurous
opera buffs: an excerpt from the chamber opera “Cinderella’s Bad Magic.”
