Lee is considered one of the foremost interpreters of minimal music. His CD, Eva-Maria Houben: Piano Music<\/em>, was chosen by Alex Ross in The New Yorker<\/em> as one of the Top 10 classical recordings of 2013. In his tenure with the Irritable Hedgehog label, he has recorded eight albums, including the premiere recording of Dennis Johnson\u2019s five-hour minimalist epic, November<\/em>, which was selected by Time Out New York<\/em> as the best classical recording of 2013.<\/p>\n The Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½ program will include William Duckworth\u2019s The Time Curve Preludes, Book I<\/em>, a post-minimalist work and Adrian Knight\u2019s Obsessions, <\/em>a 50-minute work that explores stubborn habits, routines, patterns, and obsessions.<\/p>\n Lee has dedicated himself to the performance and recording of new music. He has premiered or released the recording of compositions by many composers whose work lies on the boundaries of minimal music. Current projects include a three-plus hour commission for piano and live electronics from Randy Gibson and a disc of music by Paul A. Epstein, whose is at the intersection of total serialism and minimalism.<\/p>\n The intersection of minimal music and temporality is a primary research interest for Lee. He has presented papers and lecture-recitals at several international conferences, most recently the Fourth International Conference on Minimalist Music (California State University, Long Beach) and Time’s Excesses and Eccentricities in Music, Literature and Art (Universit\u00e9 de Caen Basse-Normandie).\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n Performance at a glance:<\/p>\n Collide Contemporary Music Series presents R.
