FORGOTTEN
DREAMS was completed on
May 28, 1954. The first
performance was a few
days later on June 2nd
during a recording
session for Delta Records
in New York, at which
time Leroy Anderson
performed the piano solo
himself. Although the
main theme of FORGOTTEN
DREAMS was intended to be
played on the piano (and
with simplicity), the
composers band edition
of the piece allowed for
a solo flute to
substitute (Play only in
absence of Piano). It is
also suggested the melody
might be beautifully
rendered on vibraphone
due to the sustaining
quality of that
instrument. In any event,
this charmingly romantic
miniature will delight
audiences whenever it is
performed. This edition
includes a full
score.
