Bob Gluck: Something Quiet
by Karl Ackermann
Thoroughly explaining the Julliard-trained Bob Gluck would be an exhaustive analysis.

Only Gluck himself remains from that recording's trio, a customary piano trio configuration but with Gluck's various synthesizers included. Something Quiet presents ...
