Interruption Overture - Steven Bryant
Interruption Overture is the musical inverse of Bryant's Chester Leaps In. In the latter, a familiar theme interrupts angular, dissonant music, whereas Interruption Overture consists of a straightforward theme in Bb major repeatedly interrupted by dissonant chords and bursts of simple aleatory ideas. These techniques are intended to serve as educational tools in addition to their musical function, exposing younger musicians to a broader-than-usual musical palette.

ImPercynations - Steven Bryant
Using melodic fragments from each of the six movements of Percy Grainger's Lincolnshire Posy as foils for each other, Steven Bryant has created a unique and brash experiment in musical juxtaposition! Grainger described his work as a bouquet of musical wildflowers, and Bryant describes ImPercynations as a genetically-altered, crossbred, hybrid offspring...a musical Franken-flower. An unconventional gem. (duration: ca. 5:15)
