Pianist Paul Barnes, who I have collaborated with several times over the last year, recently recorded an album of new works by a "new generation of composers". The album, featuring works by Philip Glass, N. Lincoln Hanks, Jason Bahr, Ivan Moody, Zack Stanton, and Jonah Gallagher, along with myself, will be released in early 2016.
You can learn more, and watch a video of Paul talking about the project here.
Lucas Floyd is a young American composer based in San Francisco. Listen to and watch performances of his music, preview and purchase scores, see upcoming events, and contact him here!
“Lucas Floyd’s . . . understated quality belies an assured technique and confident voice.
”
“Floyd is one of the new composers capable of finding new veins to mine in that ‘mother lode’ of the ‘basics.’”
“His music, very ambitious in its scope, variety, and forces required, is at once greatly enjoyed by audiences and respected by his peers.”
“Lucas’ music is fluid, finely crafted, and thought-provoking, and beyond this, it veritably ‘gushes’ out of him”
