    Michael Daugherty Reflections on the Mississippi (2013) for tuba and orchestra I. Mist II. Fury III. Prayer IV. Steamboat COMPOSER NOTE Reflections on the Mississippi (2013) for tuba and orchestra was commissioned by the Boyer College of Music and Dance at Temple University. The world premiere takes place at the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts on March 24, 2013 at 4:00 PM. www.kimmelcenter.org. The New York premiere takes place on April 5 at 8:00 PM at Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall. www.lincolncenter.org The Temple University Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Luis Biava, performs both concerts. Carol Jantsch is the tuba soloist at bother concerts. Composed in memory of my father, Willis Daugherty (1929-2011), this concerto is a musical reflection on family trips during my childhood to the Mississippi River. In 2012, I returned to the Mississippi River to make a road trip from McGregor, Iowa to Hannibal, Missouri. Along the “Great River Road,” I explored small river towns and snapped photographs of scenic vistas. Local boat owners also guided me to the secluded wildlife havens and murky backwaters of the Mississippi River. All the while, I was collecting sounds, musical ideas and an emotional framework for my tuba concerto. The tuba concerto is 20 minutes in duration, and composed in four movements: In the first movement of the concerto, “Mist,” I reflect on sunrise as seen and heard through a misty haze over the Mississippi River. After an opening ripple, the tuba intones a mystical melody that ascends through shimmering orchestral chords.

Shostakovich had a complex and difficult relationship with the Soviet government, suffering two official denunciations of his music in 1936 and 1948, and the periodic banning of his work. Shostakovich's response to official criticism and, more importantly, the question of whether he used music as a kind of abstract dissidence is a matter of dispute. It is clear that outwardly he conformed to government policies and positions, reading speeches and putting his name to articles expressing the government line. It is also generally agreed that he disliked the regime, a view confirmed by his family and his letters to Isaak Glikman. Shostakovich prided himself on his orchestration, which is clear, economical, and well-projected. This aspect of Shostakovich's technique owes more to Gustav Mahler than Rimsky-Korsakov.
