Description

In addition to being a renowned new music pianist, Margaret Leng Tan is a specialist at the toy piano. Her performances are dramatically captured here by Spanish director Anton Cabaleiro. Ms. Tan performs Cage's classic"Suite for Toy Piano," her arrangement of Cage's seminal "Dream" for toy & grand piano; plus new works, many written for her; and her arrangement for voice and toy instruments of a recent song by George Crumb. Singapore-born Margaret Leng Tan established herself as one of the most unique talents of American avant-garde music, by pioneering compositions on toy-sized instruments, such as miniature pianos, zithers, glockenspiels and music boxes. As performed on these types of instruments, this concert film by Tan features selections including Suite for Toy Piano, Tan's arrangement of John Cage's Dream for toy and grand piano, and Tan's arrangement for voice and toy instruments of a piece by George Crumb. Spanish cinematographer Anton Cabaleiro directs, evoking a unique mood for each piece.
