A heartfelt memorial to the composer’s sister, SAMBA FOR SUSAN bears a tempo marking of “Sensual,†and this 5-minute elegy is set as a slow bossa nova, full of the jazz flavor and syncopations of samba tradition. In the hands of this celebrated opera and theater composer, Gordon’s samba is a drama cast in a dance feel. Themes alternate, always returning transformed into fresh textures at each recurrence, creating a work that is catchy on first hearing, and reveals its depth upon repeated hearings.

Hailstork had originally written his Elegy in 1980, in memory of a friend's passing. Decades later, he was asked by cellist Tim Holly to finish the work, and the Caprice was added in 2016. Despite 35 years of intervening life and changes in musical language, Hailstork has matched the tonality of the earlier movement. His transcription for viola and piano was performed in October at New Music Norfolk (Hampton Roads) by Rebecca Sinclair Kim and Susan Ha.

Maggio was moved during a riverside memorial service to write his new cello solo, using the hymn At the River as his basis. Subtitled Reflections on a Memorial Service at the Riverside, We Gathered At the River is a powerful tribute and a moving memorial in its own right.

Three diverse pieces by Samuel Adler are presented. Emunah (Faith) is a paean to his wife, Emily. L'olam Vaed dates back to 1978 and is printed in proportional notation, to better guide the musicians and to maximize the performers' expressive freedom. Tribute, the most recent of the three, was written to mark the reopening of Alice Tully Hall in 2009.

Another commissioned work has Ewazen borrowing from his own The Eternal Dance of Life for a special new gift for cello and piano. The composer says it best: As a former cellist in my youth, have always loved the instrument, and have enjoyed writing for it. The work contains swirling arpeggiated gestures, a lilting compound meter and a real sense of expressivity, allowing the cello to sing with soaring lines and genuine lyricism. For advanced performers.
