Episode 63 - 2005: Steven Stucky, Concerto for Orchestra, No. 2

In this episode, Dave and Andrew explore a concerto for orchestra that achieved great heights by, in the words of its creator Steven Stucky, "standing on the shoulders of those who have already cleared the path ahead." But will our hosts appreciate the view? And who were some of the other nominees this year? We also discuss a rule change within the Pulitzer Prize award process that took effect with this year's winner.    If you'd like more information about Steven Stucky, we recommend: "Stucky, Hartke, Crockett: Conversations in Los Angeles."
