David Lang, the prolific, enthusiastic and complicated composer, embodies the restless spirit of invention. Musically adventurous, yet deeply versed in the classical tradition, Lang is determined to make a music that resists categorization. He is constantly in search of new musical forms. Many of his pieces resemble each other only in the fierce intelligence and clarity of vision that inform their structures.

Exhilarating and celebratory, the rhythmic demands of Dance Works as well as its physical nature are closer to rock, jazz and even medieval music.'Dance works' was written specifically for dance theatre and originally scored for the Steve Martland band. Martland's own arrangement for 2 pianos retains all the rhythmic power of the ensemble version but opens up new possibilities for concert performance or small scale or touring dance companies.

This piece dates back to Vasks' Sturm and Stress period and was premiered in 1977. Freely notated over long passages, it uses both commonly notated passages and symbols as well as clusters. Vasks uses this wide range of modern piano technique for an expressive performance of both pianists. The performers have to cope with eruptions of powerful sounds and passages of great softness, while excitement alternates with contemplation.
