Ignace Jang (violin), Reiko Kimura (koto), Thomas Rosenkranz (piano), I-Bei Lin (cello), Reiko Kimura (21-string koto), Seizan Sakata (shakuhachi), Aura-J
Donald Reid Womack is the composer of more than 80 works for orchestra, chamber ensembles, solo instruments and voice. He received a Fulbright Scholar Fellowship to live and work in Japan. His work with Japanese and other Asian instruments has placed him at the vanguard of East-West cross-cultural fertilization and has enabled him to make a significant contribution to the body of new literature for Asian instruments, both alone and in combination with Western instruments. His music combines a rich tonal language with an intricate use of color and texture and an exploration of multiple perceptions of rhythm.
