680160680344. The
concerto has always
seemed an especially
attractive medium to me,
not necessarily because
of its expectations of
virtuosity (although
flaunting it when you've
got it certainly has its
place), and emphatically
not because of the
perception of a concerto
as a contest, but because
so much of what I write
feels song-like; I'm very
much at home with the
age-old texture of melody
and accompaniment. I
hope, before I move on,
to have the opportunity
to write concertos for
all the major
instruments, and perhaps
some of the rarer ones as
well. The oboe is not
only one of the major
instruments, it is one of
my favorite instruments.
I've always loved its
sound, but since moving
to New York I have gotten
to hear and, in some
cases, know some
extremely fine oboists
who broadened my
appreciation of the
instrument's
possibilities. I
especially remember a
concert, probably in the
late 1960's, in which
Humbert Lucarelli played
a Handel concerto,
filling out large melodic
leaps with cascading
scale passages in a way
that raised the hair on
the back of your neck,
somewhat in the way that
John Coltrane's sheets of
sound did. The sweeping
scales in the second
movement of my concerto
were definitely inspired
by Bert Lucarelli's
performance. The first,
third and fifth movements
of the Concerto for Oboe
and Orchestra are
song-like, whereas the
second and fourth have
strong scherzo and dance
qualities, including a
couple of sections that
sound like out-and-out
pirate dances to me. The
hymn-like tune at the
beginning of the middle
movement was originally
begun as a vocal piece to
be sung by my wife, son
and daughter at my
brother's wedding, but I
couldn't come up with
good works for it, so it
ended up as an
instrumental chant. The
opening and closing of
the concerto make use of
the oboe's uniquely
soulful singing. I had
not heard Pamela Woods
Pecha's solo playing in
person when she
approached me about
writing a concerto, but I
had heard her fine
recording of chamber
music for oboe and
strings by the three B's
(English, that is: Bliss,
Bax and Britten) with the
Audubon Quartet. I
actually already had some
oboe concerto ideas in my
sketchbooks; although I
didn't end up using any
of those earlier ideas,
it's interesting that
most of them tended to
share the general feeling
and tonality of the
eventual opening of the
concerto. The work was
completed on October 13,
1994. I hate the
compromises involved in
making piano reductions
-- perhaps I would feel
differently if I were a
more accomplished pianist
-- so I often decide to
make piano reductions for
four hands rather than
two. My good friend Jon
Kimura Parker is a
terrific sight-reader,
and I roped him into
coming over to my place
on February 17, 1995, to
help me accompany Pamela
on the first read-through
of the piece. The first
performance of the work
took place on July 21,
1995, at the American
Music Festival in Duncan,
Oklahoma, with Mark
Parker conducting the
Festival Orchestra. $80.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 2 to 3 weeks | | |

680160681006. A lot
of chamber music playing
went on in Fargo, North
Dakota during my teenage
years. The participants
included both high school
friend - my brother, who
plays viola, was an is an
inveterate chamber music
player - and members of
parents' generation. The
latter included not only
professional musicians
(the conductor of the
Fargo-Moorhead Community
Orchestra, who also
played cello and was my
first composition
teacher, his wife, who
was the orchestra's
concert mistress, and
others) but also people
from various other walks
of life. Although I don't
play a string instrument,
I was almost always in
attendance, with score in
hand. (One summer, all
the young cellists we
played with went to the
Interlochen Music Camp,
so I got to play the
cello parts on the
bassoon.) Mostly it was
string quartets that were
played, but one of the
larger pieces I remember
being done more than once
was the Brahms Sextet in
G Major, and I think that
the idea for utilizing
that combination had been
lurking in the back of my
mind since then. In the
middle 1980's, ideas for
a string sextet began
appearing in my
sketchbooks; one movement
(the fourth) was actually
completed in one of the
sketchbooks. But without
a deadline, it's hard for
me to finish a major
work, since there are
always other pieces (with
deadlines) waiting to be
completed. So when the
Composers Showcase at
Lincoln Center asked me
to put together a
retrospective of my work,
I knew I wanted to have a
premiere on the program,
and May 7, 1990 became
the deadline that I got
the piece done. The work
is in six movements, with
a symmetrical key
pattern; the movements
range from the very
dramatic to the very
easy-going. I had
contacted the Lark
Quartet, who had
commissioned my String
Quartet No.2, about
forming the core of the
sextet. Unfortunately,
one of the Larks had a
scheduling conflict, but
the other three rounded
up three more players,
and the six of them gave
the piece a rousing
performance, in spite of
the limited rehearsal
time. The players were
Eva Gruesser, Genovia
Cummins, Anna Kruger,
Mary Hamman, Astrid
Schween and Julia
Lichten. A lot of
