Robert Hall Lewis (1926-1996) wrote music of an overtly philosophical bent - decidedly challenging but accessible. ... The four ensemble works presented here, all written in the decade of the eighties, are illustrative of Lewis's personal style - a synthesis of inventive textures, unusual and often exotic timbres, rich harmony, and complex rhythms.
Lewis ... adhered "to no particular school or system of composition" and ... considered himself to be an "independent maximalist." Lewis claimed that "it is very important that a composition have an original, distinctive character and an identity of its own, devoid of the obvious, derivative tendencies and commercial influences that surround us in much music today." His intent ... was to create a music of genuine interest to the listener, alternately surprising, provoking, soothing, stimulating and hopefully inspiring—an experience comparable to the limitless facets of existence.
There is no other music like his -- in refinement, sophistication, richness of texture and inventiveness. The over-riding description is "beautiful," and beyond that, words are wanting. If it were not for the over-production of composers today, if it were not for the vast publicity machines garnered by them for self promotion, if it were not that performing institutions by and large refuse to take risks in their selection of new music, if it were not that the music industry in this country is geared to the promotion of "stars," then Bob would be recognized for the great composer that he was.
