Falling Canons / Falling Trio

Kenneth Fuchs is one of America's
leading composers and his music
is performed worldwide. After
writing Falling Man, a work for
baritone voice and orchestra
based on the post-9/11 novel by
Don DeLillo, Fuchs explored the
principal theme in his rigorously
developed Falling Canons for solo

the same theme, and from its
ethereal opening presents a series
of seven fantasy variations. String
Quartet No. 5 is an exciting, large-scale work that explores the
contrapuntal possibilities of a
single 'American' theme
