Theme Variation - traces an arc spanning 400 years of composition, beginning with Orlando Gibbons' The Italian Ground ca. 1605, and culminating in Variations on a Fantasia of J.S. Bach (2017), an original work from Rogosin's friend Kevin Morse. The result is an album whose explorative gusto is matched by it's sweeping scope. Theme Variation - sees Rogosin navigate through hundreds of years of compositional variation with aplomb. The liner notes, found in the accompanying iTunes booklet and written by Rogosin, are an indispensable companion as you listen through the record.
