Stuck indoors because of the rain? Need something to keep you from going mind-numbingly bored? (Because you are procrastinating your homework that you could be doing right now…) Check out these CDs at the music library!
Some notes from Asia:
Japanese Music for Piano (CD 5177) Rain tree sketch II
Sound of Five Chen Yi (CD 4972) Happy Rain on a Spring Night
This should be a good CD for those of us who really want to think of the last day of February as Spring
Soliloquies New Japanese and Chinese Music for Harpsichord and organ (CD 4852) Rain Dreaming for Harpsichord
For our Musical Theater Lovers:
Fela! Original Broadway cast recording (CD 5286) Rain
Although this isn’t the original Black President, the cast of Fela! Is amazing and definitely worth a listen…or a bus to NYC and a ticket to Broadway
Good ol’ Girls Original Broadway cast recording (CD 5299) Appalachian Rain
New(ish) Music:
Landscape with Figures Vocal Music of Tom Cipullo (CD 5112) Rain
Off the Map Silk Road Ensemble (CD 5468) Rain

This is a double-wammy! Two songs about rain…
