Jerry Bowles, the sage zookeeper of the ‘new music’ blog / community / website Sequenza 21, made himself a lightning rod this afternoon by asking a provocative question about composer Nico Muhly. Did he mean to start a discussion? Yes. Did he mean to be incendiary? Probably. Did he mean to be a jerk? I don’t think so. He asked a question to get the kiddies to talk. Add your 2 cents but don’t shoot the messenger.

His versatile career has led to appearances ranging from Carnegie Hall to Baltimore's Metro Gallery and with ensembles including the Baltimore Symphony, Detroit Symphony, New World Symphony, and St. Petersburg (Russia) Philharmonic.

    Brian can be heard on the Grammy-winning album Songs of Innocence and Experience (Naxos) and his critically-acclaimed debut solo recording, American Voices, is available on the Innova record label.
