Notes
Born in England, Nikola Resanovic has lived in the United States from an early age. He graduated from the University of Akron with a Bachelor of Music degree in 1977 and retired from a 35-year career as Professor of Composition and Theory there in 2018. Resanovic’s Serbian heritage shows in the rhythmic energy of the outer movements of his 10-minute Trio, while the middle movement is descriptively written with chilling violin tremolandos and high, crystalline writing in the piano.
