BURK SYMPHONY NO. 1, IN E-FLAT By LEO SNIT • Born in Philadelphia, January 12, 1921 Leo Smit tells us that the first idea for a symphony came to him in Rome in 1951 and that he completed the score in New York City in the summer of 1955. The Symphony was commissioned by the Koussevitzky Music Foundation for the occasion of the thirtieth anniversary of the League of Composers. It is dedicated to the memory of Serge and Natalie Koussevitzky. The following orchestra is required: 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 4 horns, 2 trumpets, 2 trombones, timpani, and strings. The following brief analysis of his where he studied piano with Mme. Isabelle Symphony has been provided- by the coin- Vengerova. He studied composition with poser: Nicolas Nabokov.

PIANO CONCERTO NO. 2, IN G MINOR, OP. 16 By SERGE PROKOFIEFF Born in Sontsovka, Russia, April 23, 1891; died' near Moscow, March 4, 1953 Composed in 1912.1913, Prokofieff's Second Concerto was first performed August 23, 1913, at Pavlovsk (near St. Petersburg), Aslanov conducting, the composer playing the solo part. The score, according to Philip Hale, was lost "when his apartment was confiscated [requisitioned?] by the decree of the Soviet Government. Sketches of the piano part were saved. They were taken away by the composer's mother in 1921." It was from these sketches that the composer rewrote the Concerto at Etal in Bavaria in 1923. The revised version was performed in Paris, May 8, 1923, Koussevitzky conducting. Prokofieff was the soloist and performed it for the first time in the United States with this conductor at concerts of the Boston Symphony Orchestra in Boston, January 31, February 1, 1930. There was a performance at a Berkshire Festival concert, August 5, 1951, when Eleazar de Carvalho was the conductor and Jorge Bolet the soloist.

SPAIN LIVES IN THESE FINGERS

The classic Spanish guitar is a proud and passionate instrument and Andres Segovia is its undisputed master! Segovia's guitar sings of the secret shuttered soul of Spain, but his artistry is lavished equally on music from Bach to Villa- Lobos. You will find Andres Segovia's Decca Gold Label repertoire a treasury of superb high fidelity listening. Sample his artistry in album collections like An Evening With Andres Segovia (DL 9733), in Masters of the Guitar ( DL 9794), or in the delightful Art of Andres Segovia ( DL 9795 ). His latest Decca • release ( with the Quintetto Chigiano) features the new "Guitar Quintet" dedicated to Segovia by composer Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco (DL '9832). ®DECCA RECORDS ® GOLD LABEL .
