  • Selections from Eight Pieces for Clarinet, Viola and Piano, Op. 83 Max Bruch
    concerto for two pianos, various chamber pieces, songs, three operas and much choral music. Bruch composed his Eight Pieces for Clarinet, Viola and Piano, Op. 83 in 1909, in his seventieth year, for his son Max Felix, a talented clarinetist who also inspired a Double Concerto (Op. 88) for his instrument and viola from his father two years later. When the younger Bruch played the works in Cologne and Hamburg, Fritz Steinbach reported favorably on the event to the composer, comparing Max Felix’s ability with that of Richard Mühlfeld, the clarinetist who had inspired two sonatas, a quintet and a trio from Johannes Brahms two decades before. Clarinet and viola are here evenly matched, singing together in duet or conversing in dialogue, while the piano serves as an accompanimental partner. Bruch intended that the Eight Pieces be regarded as a set of independent miniatures of various styles rather than as an integrated cycle, and advised against playing all of them together in concert. The Pieces (they range from three to six minutes in length) are straightforward in structure — binary (A-B) or ternary (A-B-A) for the first six, compact sonata form for the last two — and are, with one exception (No. 7), all in thoughtful minor keys. Though Bruch was fond of incorporating folk music into his concert works, only the Romanian Melody (No. 5, Selections from Eight Pieces suggested to him, he said, by “the delightful young princess zu Wied” at one of his Sunday open-houses; he dedicated the work to her) shows such for Clarinet, Viola and Piano, Op.

Higdon Rhythm Stand by Jennifer Higdon pays tribute to the constant presence of rhythm in our lives from the pulse of the world around us, celebrating the “regular order” we all experience, and incorporating traditional and nontraditional sounds within a 4/4-meter American-style swing. In the composer’s own words: “Since rhythm is everywhere, not just in music (ever listen to the lines of a car running across pavement, or a train on a railroad track?), I’ve incorporated sounds that come not from the instruments that you might find in a band, but from objects that sit nearby—music stands and pencils!” For Angels, Slow Ascending (2014) ................................. Simon The composer describes his inspiration and intention for the piece: In December 2013, we watched in silence and shock as a massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., claimed the lives of 27 people, including 20 young children.

As a child growing up in a small village surrounded by rice fields, I was exposed to this practice as a part of folk music, and would later hear the music of other cultures share this approach. In contemporary Western music, however, vocalization was most often used as a special effect. I would eventually seek to incorporate vocalization in a more comprehensive manner that was integral to the work while reflecting a similar timelessness and cultural resonance as in the folk music I remembered. The first significant occasion I had to experiment with this idea was in Susan Ung’s Moon Ritual, a structured improvisation in the late 1970s in which Susan played her viola through a Buchla synthesizer while I played cello and vocalized, using syllables for their sound character. The idea remained on the back burner for twenty years before I brought it forth in a major work, Grand Alap, for cello and percussion, in which both parts featured extensive vocalization.
