Fur Klavier sind 1961 entstanden. Jurg Wyttenbach hat sie im Januar 1962 in Basel uraufgefuhrt. Obschon die drei Stucke (uber Gedichte von Georg Trakl) ganz aus den spezifischen Eigenarten des klavierklangs heraus entstanden sind, habe ich 1963 versucht (quasi als Vorarbeit zu meinen szenischen Projekt 'Der magische Tanzer' 1963/65) diese 'Elis'-Musik aufs Orchester zu ubertragen.Besonders wichtig schien mir dabei, neben einer moglichst differenzierten Organisation der Klangfarben vor allem die in der Klavierfassung sehr wesentlichen Pedal-Resonanzen auszukomponieren. Die Orchesterfassung. Die Orchesterfassung hat Pierre Boulez 1964 mit dem Stockholmer Radioorchester uraufgefuhrt.1973 habe ich den 1966 neu komponierten Anfang des 2. Nachtstuckes ebenfalls orchestriert und vor allem die (durch die Verwendung indischer Rhythmen bedingte) metrische Gliederung der drei Stucke zu vereinfachen versucht.Den Stucken sind Motto folgende Verse aus Georg Trakls 'Elis'-Gedichten vorangestellt:I. 'Elis, wenn die Amsel im Schwarzen Walde ruft, Dieses ist dein Untergang.'(aus 'An den Knaben Elis')II. 'Blaue TaubenTrinken nachts den eisigen SchweissDer von Elis' kristalliner StirneRinnt.'(aus 'Elis II')III. 'Ein goldener KahnSchaukelt, Elis, dein Herz am Einsamen Himmel.'(aus 'Elis I')-Heinz Holliger.

My father, Y. “Raghu†Raghunathan, came from India to the U.S. in 1963, followed soon after by my mother Sita. Dad enjoyed a substantial career as a pharmaceutical chemist, but he drew satisfaction from a simple life among family and friends, never allowing professional demands to overshadow his devotion to loved ones. Modest, compassionate, and ardently egalitarian, he was careful not to take anything too seriously, especially himself. He embraced his own ordinariness because it connected him to everyone else; it made him no better or worse than his neighbor, no more or less deserving of friendship or kindness than any of his fellow human beings. He showed us how to live with dignity, compassion, grace, and boundless love. His last piece of advice to me: “Go slow.†Several weeks after his passing, I happened upon a recording of Shostakovich’s 24 Preludes and Fugues, opus 87. I couldn’t understand why at the time, but the sixteenth prelude and fugue took hold of me and would not let go. I completely immersed myself in that piece for ten days, until it became a mystical conduit for something else: in this semi-trance state I produced a prelude and fugue of my own, in prayer (orison) and in praise (upastuti). It shadows Shostakovich’s form, but it somehow expresses my father’s unhurried, loving spirit. I’ve come to believe that he sent me this piece as a blessing. I hope you feel his presence in it as I do. Vijay Iyer.

Richard Wilson was born in Cleveland on May 15, 1941. He studied piano with Roslyn Pettibone, Egbert Fischer, and Leonard Shure, andcello with Robert Ripley and Ernst Silberstein. After beginning composition studies with Roslyn Pettibone and Howard Whittaker, he went on in 1959 to Harvard, studying with Randall Thompson, G.W. Woodworth, and principally with Robert Moevs, and graduating in 1963 magna cum laude. Awarded the Frank Huntington Beebe Award for study abroad, he continued studying piano with Friedrich Wührer in Munich, and composition, again with Moevs, in Rome, where he also gave piano recitals. Wilson joined the faculty of Vassar College in 1966. He was appointed to the Mary Conover Mellon Professorship of Music there in 1988, and he has served three times as chairman of the Department of Music. Wilson has been commissioned by the San Francisco Symphony, the American Symphony, the New Juilliard Ensemble, the Koussevitzky Foundation, the Fromm Foundation, Chamber Music America, the Chicago Chamber Musicians, the Walter W. Naumburg Foundation, and the Library of Congress. His works have been heard in such American musical centers as New York, Philadelphia, Washington, Boston, Cleveland, and Los Angeles and at the Aspen Music Festival, but also in London, Berlin, Frankfurt, Zurich, Milan, Amsterdam, Graz, Leningrad, Stockholm, Tokyo, Bogota, and a number of Australian cities. The recipient in 1992 of a Guggenheim Fellowship, he was awarded the Elise L. Stoeger Prize of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center in 1994, the Academy Award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters in 2004, and has served as composer in residence with the American Symphony Orchestra since 1992. Wilson has been praised by 21st Century Music as a “splendidly talented and highly accomplished composer whose music rewards seeking out†and by the New York Sun as “possessed of a hard-won idiom that has grown and developed over the years into a probing blend of wit, classic form, modern harmony, and impressionistic color.†Writing in the New Yorker, Andrew Porter called his String Quartet No. 3 a “richly wrought and unusual composition,†while the New York Times called it “a work of substance and expressivity ... [that] merits a place in the active repertory.â€.

The first movement has a dreamy and dramatic impressionistic quality, whereas the second movement is deeply melancholy and religious sounding. The third movement is playful with pulsating rhythms, which demonstrate a symphonic jazz feel. In 1963, at the age of thirty, Lane quickly formed up a close friendship with Paul Van Ness through their involvement with the Ridgewood Orpheus Glee Club (NJ), an all-male choir for which Lane was appointed accompanist. Lane maintained the accompanist position for this group for forty-one years until his death in 2004. Lane dedicated his Sonata 2 to Van Ness as a high school graduation present in 1965. During this period Lane also composed a piano suite for four hands, and a fantasy for piano and orchestra, along with other solo instrumental, choral and orchestral works. Van Ness performed the world premiere of Piano Sonata 2 at his Senior Recital in 1969, five years after its conception, at the Eastman School of Music, Lane’s alma mater. Karl Tricomi, another student of Lane’s and also graduate of the Eastman School of Music performed this second Sonata in 1976 at Carnegie Hall (NY) as well.

Suite No. 1, written by Richard Lane between his 20th and 22nd year, marks the beginning of the high level music he composed for solo piano. The five movements follow one soul state after another. Polichinelle: Lane skillfully lets the notes run, essentially in two voices, on a Presto rich in changing meters. Nocturne: A slow movement animated with great emotional delicacy. Berceuse: All of Lane’s art is expressed in his mastery of simplicity. Waltz: A moderato 3/4 with rhythmic eighth notes and a clever central passage. Epilogue: An Allegro molto agitato that requires a high level of virtuosic execution from both hands. Suite No. 1 was the first of four works dedicated to Mary K. Green-Traver (Lane’s friend and contemporary at the Eastman School of Music) between 1953 and 1963.

The suite, composed in the modern classical style, was written in honour of the anniversary of the founding of a school. The dissonances, held up against the backdrop of humorous expression, are easily understood. The Etude combines pleasureable elements of concerto style with impressionistic colourfulness. The impressionist idiom can also be heard in the Prologue, standing in contrast here to recitative sections. Advanced pupils and students will come to terms with the technical difficulties, professional pianists will enjoy the specifically pianistic aspects of this work.

Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen 3 EPIGRAMS'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.

Wiegenmusik (= ,,Cradle Music, not ,,Cradle Song) is determined by a structure of multifariously branching arpeggio figures, often drawn tightly together. After the compressions of the opening, it comes closer and closer toward a state of complete rest: sleeping child (Schumann, Scenes from Childhood), almost as a psychogram.
