Piano Solo-'3 Epigrams' (1963) came into existence following my piece for chamber orchestra 'Chronos' (1962). My purpose with these pieces (and others of the same period) was to explore the sound experiences of serialism in space and time but without using the original and fundamental substance of serialism - the tone row. The chromatic space was constituted by four identical and complementary tone columns (established by transposition). The time was divided into 25 different sizes plasticly conceived and graphically notated. These distances were then divided in 25 new distances in the same proportions etc ... into smaller and smaller durations completely hierarchally carried through.This time division 'rhythm' de-termines the gradual or sudden shifts from one tone column to another.The 3 Epigrams became a little play of my own with this material and the work is therefore quite clear to read and easy to play - a kind of bagatelle really.I am now afraid that a classic situation is emerging: If this programme note is any longer it will take more time to read this than it will take to play the three pieces.Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen

Not as lengthy as some of the concerti but still a substantial piece it is an excellent concerto for the less advanced pianist who still wants a workout at the keys. Shows Mozart's love of fun in his keyboard works and includes such clever techniques as hand-crossings in the first movement. The slow movement gives tremendous opportunity to the soloist.

Arr. Priestley B. Par VINE CARL. The term 'Canzona' is used here in it's broadest possible sense as a 'song for instruments'. As the simplest of starting points the chamber orchestra is viewed as a collection of 'singing' instruments presented either in melody or in a complex counterpoint./ Recueil / Piano

arranged for piano by Caroline Potter-Lili Boulanger's Marche Gaie arranged for Piano by Caroline Potter. 'In her all too brief career Lili Boulanger (1893-1918) composed a number of works whose existence is unquestioned for which there is proof they existed but which have now disappeared. One of these missing pieces Marche gaie resurfaced in short score form in 2011 in a private collection in North Carolina; the owners of the manuscript are the grandchildren of the work’s dedicatee Jeanne Leygues. As Marche gaie was registered with SACEM (the collecting Society for music in France) as a work for chamberorchestra in 1916 we can assume it was composed in that year. While the manuscript is in an unknown hand there is musical and circumstantial evidence combined with testimony from the family (whose Leygues ancestors knew the Boulanger family well) that shows beyond reasonable doubt that this is a missing work by Lili Boulanger. Jeanne Leygues daughter of the French politician Georges Leygues briefly Prime Minister in 1920-1 and a great supporter of the arts married an American Paul Rockwell who fought with his brother in the French Foreign Legion in World War I. We can assume that Marche gaie was commissioned for Jeanne’s wedding in December 1916 not least because the piece alludes to Mendelssohn’s famous Wedding March in bars 25-32 a gesture typical of Lili Boulanger who was fond of quotation and allusion. Marche gaie was originally paired with a Marche funèbre a work yet to resurface. It is a pleasure to bring this occasional piece to life. The author is very grateful to Paul Sholarand Vance Brown of Asheville North Carolina for their generous assistance in preparing Marche gaie for publication.' Caroline Potter
