Richard Faria '87, The Horse with the Lavender Eye: Piano and Chamber Music

Richard Faria '87, The Horse with the Lavender Eye: Piano and Chamber Music (Chandos, 2009)

The Horse with the Lavender Eye features clarinetist Faria performing a kaleidoscope of creative compositions by Stephen Hartkeon with members of the Los Angeles Piano Quartet. This inventive assemblage of sounds, inspired as much by medieval court music as the blues, is lively in its rhythm and playful in its melody.

Faria is a professor of clarinet at Ithaca College.
