ilike,
It's funny how I've become a "sage of twentieth centry music" here -- although I'm honored to wear the title.
As for Gail Kubik, I've never heard a note of his (I checked) music (although the composer of the cartoon adventures of Gerald McBoing-Boing would be high on my list!) (boing-boing) (dating myself)
Can't you get a good enough idea from the score? Honestly, I feel that too many of us rely on recorded materials when an hour studying the score should accomplish much the same (or more).
I like and have played both the Hindemith Trumpet and Bassoon Concerto and Barber's Capricorn Concerto (although the latter is a bit light-weight on the ECMeter).
Let us know what you think after 60 minutes of study? (ok, 55)
Watching (here),
