MUSIC FOR VIOLA & ORCHESTRA

Composer: 
Matthew Davidson
Scoring: 
2222,2211, 2 percussion, harp, Strings

Ensemble Type

Instruments

Composer's note:  In this work, the first movement uses two Basque melodies (one of which is a Basque lullaby whose text contains only Basque nonsense words) for the first group and a "Bulgarianized" version of a Hungarian folk melody for the second in this short sonata form.  The second movement is an arrangement of a 14th century melody by Guillaume de Machault, and the last owes something to Scandinavian folk music (the obscure title refers to a favorite Finnish dill-infused salad dressing that I like to make on occasion).

The first two pieces in this set are tone poems in the truest sense of the term.
The music of The Granite Mountain Dream is solid, weighty, and hard. The
music is more than a vision of the mountain - it is the mountain. The music of
The Pink Forest Dream is as pink and forest-like as I could make it. This is
hypnotic music, music well suited for meditation. The Good Old-Fashioned
Toccata-Fugue Dream is a result of my recent study of J. S. Bach’s Well-Tempered
Clavier. Dedicated To Raphael Jimenez and The Michigan State University Philharmonic Orchestra

CONCERTO No. 3 FOR PIANO AND ORCHESTRA

Composer: 
John Melby
Scoring: 
pic.2.2.ca.2.bcl.2/4/3.3.1 timp.3perc/pfsolo/ 2hp/ strings

Ensemble Type

Instruments

The Piano Concerto No. 3 continues Melby's series of concerti, now numbering
nineteen works, but with a difference. The others, with one exception, have
substituted a computer-synthesized accompaniment for the traditional orchestra, but
this piece begins a new series of concerti for instruments with orchestra. The
concerto, composed for the phenomenal Canadian pianist Winston Choi, is cast in one
extended movement of about 25 minutes in duration and takes full advantage of
Winston Choi's astounding virtuosity, culminating in an exuberant burst of energy.
