PULSE

Shani Diluka's new solo-piano album brings a different perspective to 20th-century American classical music. With a few "jazz breaths" by those who worshipped classical music, the album references the great American themes of the first pioneers. It features short pieces by Philip Glass (from Etudes), Keith Jarrett ("Be My Love"), John Cage ("Dream"), Daft Punk ("Veridis Quo"), Terry Riley (The Philosopher's Hand), Bill Evans ("Danny Boy"), and many more.
