Pianist Paul Barnes is known for his work with Philip Glass and made several significant collections of pieces by contemporary American composers. Barnes has an extremely wide range of interests, and his specialties are minimalism and religious symbolism in music. He has performed throughout the world, including the debut of Glass' "Second Piano Concerto," based on the Lewis and Clark expedition. Barnes released a disc of his own transcriptions of Glass opera music on the Orange Mountain label. Other composers that Barnes has been associated with include David Ott, Victoria Bond, and Jeffrey Hass. On recording, Barnes is best known for two volumes of American Piano Concertos on the Koch International label, including works by Joan Tower, Ott, and Bond. ~ Eugene Chadbourne
