Episode 26 – Alex Klein / Twentieth Century Oboe Sonatas

Grammy Award-winning Third Coast Percussion (TCP), praised by NPR for championing “borderless music” and “blurring musical boundaries,” celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2025 with Standard Stoppages, an album that explores how time can be stretched, manipulated, played with, and reimagined.

Dance of the Night Sky, Black Oak Ensemble‘s third album for Cedille, expands the boundaries of string trio repertoire by offering listeners a vibrant collection of contemporary works including four world-premiere recordings, all by British women composers.

Our new update of our Third Coast Percussion playlist celebrates this month’s release of the ensemble’s 7th album for Cedille as they mark their 20th anniversary with a collection of world premieres titled Standard Stoppages. We’ll add tracks from the new CD when it’s released on April 11.
