Bric-A-Brac. Ricky Ian Gordon Sings Ricky Ian Gordon

Ricky Ian Gordon, vocal & piano

$15.99

One of the most beloved American composers of opera, musical theatre and song – Ricky Ian Gordon – performs his own songs while accompanying himself on the piano in the latest CD release from Blue Griffin: “Bric-A-Brac.”
Providing a rare insight into the music and poetry of the celebrated composer, “Bric-A-Brac” is the second release on the “Ricky Ian Gordon Sings Ricky Ian Gordon” recording series, following the highly successful “A Horse With Wings,” which was described by Fanfare Magazine as “Impassionate.”
Set to the words of such poets as Dorothy Parker, Edna St. Vincent Millay, May Swenson, Marie Howe and Langston Hughes, in addition to Gordon’s own poetry, these songs reflect a more intimate side of the famed composer whose prolific catalog features such large stage works as the opera “The Grapes of Wrath,” which was proclaimed “The great American Opera” by Musical America, and the musical “Sycamore Trees,” which was listed as one of ten best productions of 2010 by the Washington Post.
