《美国集合曲》是英斯凯普乐团在索诺卢米纳斯厂牌发行的首张获得格莱美提名的专辑《跳跃节奏》的续作，它探索了21世纪美国音乐丰富多样的声音。从我们城市的机械化世界到自然景观的美丽风光，从爵士乐和摇滚乐的声音到本土民间音乐，当代古典音乐的画面既具有启示性又丰富多元。这张专辑中的作品通过七位年轻作曲家独特的美国风格，反映了美国的文化、风景和环境。
专辑以内森·林肯 - 德库萨蒂斯的《被遗忘的世界》开场，这是一部由三个乐章组成的室内交响曲，每个乐章都以一种特定的声音形态为蓝本。阿曼多·巴约洛的《广阔空间》旨在探讨围绕气候变化影响的相关问题。丹·维斯孔蒂的《黑色弯道》开篇是一幅由遥远、哀伤的声音构成的开阔拼贴画，带有清澈夏日风景的韵味和乡村方言的缓慢拖腔。从这种音乐织体中，一段缓慢的布鲁斯旋律浮现出来，并逐渐加速至激昂的哀号，却又像它出现时那样迅速消散于虚无。朱莉娅·阿道夫带来了室内乐作品《无声的生灵》，这部作品想象了一群忙碌的小角色在一系列通过不断变化的音景描绘出的场景中穿梭的情景。约瑟夫·霍尔曼的《非凡的格丽桑德拉·威克》讲述了一个年轻女巫刚刚掌握自己的魔力，初涉巫术世界的故事。这部作品被创作成一首音诗，反映了她学习和施展的咒语。斯蒂芬·戈尔博斯的《我决定保留的东西》受放克音乐和前卫摇滚的影响，推动着这张专辑的节奏向前，其在事件的线性发展上受到了贝拉·巴托克第五弦乐四重奏的启发。格雷戈里·斯皮尔斯对《熊与鸽子》的新编配版本收录在蓝光碟中并提供数字下载，该版本是受委托为配合克里斯托弗·威廉姆斯在巴德旋转木马帐篷剧院对普罗科菲耶夫芭蕾舞剧《空中飞人》的编舞而创作的。
英斯凯普乐团由艺术总监理查德·斯切尔博于2004年创立，致力于打造引人入胜的音乐会体验，旨在吸引观众，并提供令人兴奋且易于理解的方式来探索经典和非经典的曲目。英斯凯普乐团的演出因其“勇气和音乐敏感度”而受到《华盛顿邮报》的赞誉，他们2014年获得格莱美提名的专辑《跳跃节奏》最近被《纽约时报》单独挑出，称赞其“精彩绝伦”且“录音精美”。
英斯凯普乐团一直愉快且频繁地与崭露头角的美国作曲家合作，并致力于呈现以当代音乐为特色的音乐会。自成立以来，英斯凯普乐团已委托创作并首演了二十多部新作品。
《美国集合曲》在构思和录制时采用了完全沉浸式的7.1环绕声，以更深入地反映作曲家的创作理念，同时也让听众能够领略到英斯凯普乐团所能呈现的所有声音色彩。这张专辑附带一张纯音频蓝光碟，其中包括高解析度立体声、5.1声道和7.1声道的混音版本以及数字拷贝，此外还附有一张标准CD。

American Aggregate, the follow up to Inscape’s GRAMMY® nominated debut album Sprung Rhythm on the Sono Luminus label, explores the rich and varied sounds of American music in the 21st century. From the mechanized world of our cities to the natural beauty of our landscapes, from the sounds of jazz and rock to indigenous folk music, the picture of contemporary classical music is revealing and diverse. The works contained on this album reflect American culture, landscape, and environment as expressed through the distinctly American voices of seven young composers.
The album opens with Nathan Lincoln-DeCusatis’ Oblivion, a chamber symphony in three movements in which each movement is modeled on a specific sonic shape. Armando Bayolo’s Wide Open Spaces was composed to address the concerns surrounding the impact of climate change. Dan Visconti’s Black Bend begins with a spacious collage of distant, mournful sounds with the flavor of limpid summer landscape and the slow drawl of rural vernacular. From this texture a slow blues emerges and accelerates in a wailing frenzy, only to dissolve into nothingness as quickly as it materialized. Julia Adolphe brings the ensemble Wordless Creatures, a work that imagines a community of small, scurrying characters moving through a series of scenes portrayed through shifting soundscapes. The Extraordinary Gryssandra Wycke by Joseph Hallman is the story of a young witch who is new to her powers and the world of witchcraft. The piece is composed as a tone poem that reflects the spells she learns and employs. Stephen Gorbos’ What I Decided to Keep propels the CD forward with the influences of funk and progressive rock, drawing inspiration from Béla Bartók’s 5th string quartet in its linear succession of events. Included on the Blu-ray disc and for digital download, Gregory Spears’ new arrangement of The Bear and the Dove was commissioned to accompany Christopher Williams’ choreographic staging of Prokofiev’s ballet Trapeze at the Bard Spiegeltent.
Founded in 2004 by Artistic Director Richard Scerbo, Inscape creates compelling concert experiences that aim to engage audiences and provide exciting, accessible ways to explore both standard and non-standard repertoire. Inscape’s performances have been praised by The Washington Post for their “guts and musical sensitivity,” and their 2014 Grammy nominated album Sprung Rhythm was recently singled out as “brilliant” and “gorgeously recorded” by The New York Times.
Inscape has worked joyously and often with emerging American composers and is committed to presenting concerts featuring the music of our time. Since its inception, Inscape has commissioned and premiered over twenty new works.
American Aggregate was conceived and recorded in fully immersive 7.1 surround sound to achieve a deeper reflection of the composers’ visions, as well as to give the listener exposure to all of the sonic colors that Inscape has to offer. The album comes with a Pure Audio Blu-ray disc which includes high-resolution stereo, 5.1, and 7.1 mixes and digital copies, as well as a standard CD.
