It's not often you see a program featuring Prokofiev, Glazunov, and Liza Lim (among many others).  I guess that's what this trumpet/piano duo means by "reaching for the distant."  (If you don't know her, Lim -- an Australian whose work encompasses Asian/Australian ritual elements, sure, but is mainly attractive for the way it combines sonic sensuality with visceral force -- is one of the best composers around.  Not that you'd know it from how frequently she gets programed in New York.)
