This is also worth a listen.  Miss Wang's Culver Chamber Music Series is
about a 40-minute drive to the north of where my wife and I live, and we
have attended a half-dozen or so times.  I can honestly say that absolutely
none of the gripes I have against 20th century works apply to any of the
Barrows works I've heard to date at these concerts, nor at this website.

She's right.  He's very good.
