Mark Abel (born 1948) is an American composer of classical music. His work – cast primarily as a flexible rethinking of the art song tradition — is marked by straightforward tonal language, striking vocal writing, and an avoidance of overtly modern compositional techniques. Mark has described his idiom as a post-modern synthesis of classical and rock styles. To learn more about Mark’s music, click here to go to his website.
The trio of our own ARIEL PISTURINO, soprano Janet Chamberlin, and pianist Victoria Kirsch are featured on the just released “Terrain of the Heart,” a new recording of Abel’s songs on the Delos label. It is available for streaming or download; click here to go to the Delos website.
