The concept of color has influenced several of popular music's most memorable melodies. Enter composer Dr. J.A. Kawarsky, who throws his hat in the ring with Red Square, a jubilant union of original musical ideas with hints of popular music references sprinkled throughout, and no shortage of twists and turns. Kawarsky challenges listeners to identify which compositional quotes may have derived their placements from the color red with this short and snappy symphonic work, performed in this Navona Records release by the acclaimed London Symphony Orchestra.
"How Much Is Enough?" People seem to be taking to it," laughed Iain Matthews as he openly talked about his new release, his musical wanderlust, writer's block and more. You finish a record and you're so saturated with it; you know if it's good but you just don't know how people are going to relate to it; you only know what you've created as an artist, you don't know whether you've made something that will draw people in but now that Wendy (Brynford-Jones) is doing her thing with all of the press and sending the record out to people, I'm getting these amazing responses back. So, I'm kind of thinking; maybe it's good (laughs)."

"Correct! I actually performed on The Totally Tubular Festival two years ago. I was playing solo that night and they asked me to come back, so I thought I'd do something a bit different and so I decided to reform my backing band from 1988, The Lost Toy People. The last show we played together was with Depeche Mode and OMD at the Rose Bowl for the legendary 101 Concert and the other night in Phoenix was our first show in 38 years; how about that?"
Even those who don't know very much about visual art are familiar with the Cubist approach to the human body. Pablo Picasso liked to present a person from many angles at once, and compress three-dimensional form into a two-dimensional frame. No matter what step she's on, that nude descending a staircase comes at us all at once. We know we're looking at an individual person, even if it's never clear which of those fields of color represent the present moment and which are afterimages, projections, and vapor trails. Representing human beings like this guarantees that there’ll be distortions: facial features in strange places, unexpected angles, duplicates and odd subtractions, clashes between heads, necks, and torsos, the shuffling of expressions, and the surprise and disquiet that comes when an obviously human figure doesn't look much like a human at all.
