{"product_id":"the-stone-people","title":"The Stone People","description":"No one inhabits a Steinway quite like Australian pianist  \u003cb\u003eLisa Moore\u003c\/b\u003e, which is probably why so many modern composers have invited her to interpret their music. Known for her “beautiful and impassioned” approach, as  \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e described one of her performances, Moore brings a fully charged sense of rhythm, mysticism and adventure to  \u003cb\u003eThe Stone People\u003c\/b\u003e, her first full-length recording for Cantaloupe Music. It follows in the footsteps of Moore’s three-part series of acclaimed EPs for the label: Seven (2009), Lightning Slingers and Dead Ringers (2011) and Stainless Staining (2012).\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e  As Pulitzer-winning composer and Bang on a Can cofounder David Lang reveals in the album’s liner notes, the project takes its name from the opening piece by another Pultizer winner,  \u003cb\u003eJohn Luther Adams\u003c\/b\u003e. “John’s music is ruggedly elemental,” Lang writes, “using very restrained materials as a way of probing some of our most fundamental human truths. Who we are. Where we are. How we relate to each other. How we relate to the natural world. His pieces are stark explorations of humankind in its most elemental state, and this CD brings together, for the first time, his complete acoustic music for solo piano.”\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e  Among other firsts, the disc includes two works for piano by  \u003cb\u003eJulia Wolfe\u003c\/b\u003e (2015’s Pulitzer winner), as well as newly recorded pieces by  \u003cb\u003eMartin Bresnick\u003c\/b\u003e,  \u003cb\u003eMissy Mazzoli\u003c\/b\u003e and  \u003cb\u003eKate Moore\u003c\/b\u003e. By turns meditative, mysterious, tumultuous and tender, The Stone People presents Lisa Moore at the height of her transformative powers.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Cantaloupe Music","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":49705260286232,"sku":"713746311520","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/4346\/3192\/files\/3083626.jpg?v=1777770800","url":"https:\/\/hbdirect.com\/products\/the-stone-people","provider":"HBDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
