THE
BONES OF MR. FORTUNE
(FREE AT LAST!) is an
11-minute concerto-like
work for solo flute
accompanied by symphonic
winds and percussion
– perfect to play
with band or with
orchestra, as well as
with the
composer’s own
piano reduction. The work
features lengthy
cadenzas, and
exhilarating dance-like
sections with the
ensemble. Hailstork
describes the historical
inspiration: Abused in
life and death, an
enslaved man (Mr.
Fortune) was owned by a
surgeon who preserved his
skeleton to study
anatomy. The bones
remained with the
doctor’s family
for generations, and were
given a proper burial
making national news in
2013, 215 years after Mr.
Fortune’s
death. Abused in life
and death, an enslaved
man known as Mr. Fortune
was honored with an
elaborate funeral more
than 200 years after he
died in Connecticut.Mr.
Fortune was owned by Dr.
Preserved Porter on a
farm in Waterbury,
Connecticut. When Fortune
died in 1798, Porter, a
bone surgeon, preserved
his skeleton by having
the bones boiled to study
anatomy at a time when
cadavers for medical
study were
disproportionately taken
from slaves, servants and
prisoners.One of
Porter’s
descendants gave the
skeleton in 1933 to
Mattatuck Museum in
Waterbury, where it was
displayed from the 1940s
until 1970. The
descendant referred to
the slave as
“Larry†and
his name was forgotten at
the time.A study by
forensic anthropologists
at the Quinnipiac
University School of
Medicine concluded that
Fortune was about 5 feet
5 inches tall and died at
around 55 years old. He
suffered a number of
painful ailments,
including a fracture in
his left hand, a severe
ankle sprain and lower
back pain. “He was
an individual who was in
considerable
distress,†a
forensic professor,
Richard Gonzalez said.I
was taken by the bizarre
story of Mr. Fortune and
decided to use it as the
stimulus for this
work.

Composed as
the rondo finale of
Paganini’s Violin
Concerto No. 2, La
Campanella quickly took
on a life of its own,
being quoted by other
composers in their own
works even during the
composer’s
lifetime. The title
refers to a small bell
motif that recurs in the
accompaniment, in dialog
with the soloist.
Bouriakov’s
transcription for flute
and piano exquisitely
captures the original
sparkle, levity, and
intensity, in a manner
that is gratifying to
perform and to hear. The
present transcription was
included on the
repertoire list for the
2019 Tchaikovsky
Competition.

LITTL
E ANGEL was composed in
loving memory of a
friend’s daughter
who was stillborn, to
commemorate a life
unlived. The first
movement, Hopes and
Dreams, opens the work
with sweet optimism and
charm. The second
movement, Anticipation
and Loss is a musical
setting of joy followed
by profound sadness.
LITTLE ANGEL concludes
with Finding Peace as the
third movement opens with
grief and longing,
followed by a plaintive
cadenza, and finally
ending with peace and
hope. Little Angel was
commissioned by Janelle
Barrera in loving memory
of her daughter Daisy
Rose who was stillborn,
to commemorate a life
unlived.Little Angel is
written for flute and
piano in three
movements:1. Hopes and
Dreams: The first
movement begins with
three brief statements
that are introspective
and hopeful, looking
toward the future,
followed by a lyrical
melody in 3/4 meter.2.
Anticipation and Loss:
The second movement opens
with a playful melody in
mixed meter combining
simple time and compound
time. At letter C, the
tempo slows, and the tone
becomes decidedly more
serious and eventually
more somber.3. Finding
Peace: The third movement
opens with a melody
expressing grief and
longing, followed by a
plaintive cadenza, and
finally ending with peace
and hope.
