The
Composer writes: 'In
February 1987 I saw in
the Tate Gallery in
London a painting by the
Victorian English painter
John William Waterhouse.
The painting kept
haunting my memory, and
as I at the same time
planned to write a piece
for solo Viola, my ideas
for the music and the
memory of the painting
fused more and more. I
decided, then, to let my
piece borrow the title of
Waterhouse's painting:
The Lady Of Shalott. The
picture of a mad-like,
pale, and perhaps singing
woman alone in a boat
without sculls, which
calmly slips out from the
rush growth of the river
is an illustration for
the ending of Alfred
Tennyson's poem by the
same title, which again
plaits into the old
English legends about
King Arthur. My piece
tries to meander - like
the river at Camelot -
among these sources.' As
suggested above the piece
was originally written
for Viola solo. This
version for String
Quartet is from 1993.

As aspiring
fingerpicking guitarists
started expanding their
horizons from folk,
blues, and ragtime in the
1970s, it was only
logical to look towards
early jazz tunes as a
vast source for new
possibilities. For one
thing, they could follow
the same evolutionary
path from ragtime to jazz
that had been taken by
pianists such as Jelly
Roll Morton and Harlem
stride players like James
P. Johnson and Fats
Waller. These musicians
all composed in a variety
of styles, but their most
ambitious piano solos
expanded on the classic
ragtime format developed
by the likes of Scott
Joplin, James Scott, and
Joseph Lamb, using
several strains that
usually changed keys at
least once. Morton, the
self-proclaimed inventor
of jazz, would record
versions of tunes like
King Porter
Stomp and The
Original Jelly Roll
Blues that are
similar to straight
ragtime performances, and
others where there is
lots of room left for
embellishment and jazz
improvisation.
The present
collection is a bonanza
for guitarists who want
to tackle advanced
arrangements along the
lines of ragtime but
featuring jazz age
harmonies from the
playing of Jelly Roll
Morton, Louis Armstrong,
Bix Beiderbecke, WC
Handy, the Original
Dixieland Jazz Band and
other early jazz legends.
The 32 arrangements
included are by a wide
assortment of guitarists
including Ernie Hawkins,
Pat Donohue, Lasse
Johansson, Duck Baker,
Ton Van Bergeyk, Sandy
Shalk, Steve McWilliam,
and Dorian Henry.
