The Sultana Scheherazade, however, saved her life by interested the Sultan in the stories she told him during 1001 nights. In his curiosity for the sequels to her stories, the Sultan postponed Scheherazade's execution from day to day until he finally abandoned his sanquinary resolution altogether. In her stories, Scheherazade frequently included the verses and songs of the poets, and interlaced her narratives of marvels and adventures so as to link them together. Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov (1844-1908) wrote this work in 1888, and it premiered in Saint Petersburg on October 28 of that year with the composer conducting. The work has remained a popular staple of the repertoire ever since. Edited by Clinton Nieweg and Drew Holmes.

43493E5BF5E6-8E29-49FE-B92B-6D9736C7C7A0R27Serenade for Clarinet and OrchestraThis work is one of a group of three pieces for solo wind instruments and band commissioned by the G. LeBlanc Corporation as performance vehicles for their artist/clinicians, the other two being "Ode for Trumpet" and Ballade for Alto Saxophone". This serenade was written for clarinetist Robert E. Lowry. Set in the form of a freely developing lyrical idyl in variation form involving an almost continous musical development, the solo clarinet line together with a constantly shifting harmonic background paint a pastoral scene of Sioux life that suggests an overall three-part song form. Versions for orchestra, band, and piano accompaniment are available from the publisher.Clarinet Solo, Full Orchestra

World Premiere: Lyric Opera of Chicago, Dennis Russell Davies conducting, Dec. 11, 2004 “A Wedding is his best operatic score to date: accessible, singable, eclectic, consistently inventive and great fun.” — Chicago Tribune “…half ironic, half tender, and fully enchanting…” — The New Yorker “Audience laughter sprang not only from the hilarious plot situations but from the witty, perceptive libretto by Arnold Weinstein and [Robert] Altman, as well as from Bolcom’s frothy concoction of musical styles … Bolcom’s music swings and sways. It rocks and rolls. It dances a snappy samba. The wedding ceremony reels to a pompous march. It’s all in good fun — sort of a Bernstein meets Gershwin meets the Beatles.” —Charles H.

43543E6EDDCA-677B-488F-A823-1C9D6140FAF110505616DiversionsDIVERSIONS, for brass sextet, was written in memory of the composer's father - a man who had been particularly fond of music for brass instruments. Written in three movements, this work attempts to present to the listener a series of contrasting brass moods: a mood that is energetic and straightforward (I. Prologue), one of qiuet and thoughtful reminiscence (II. Reminiscence), and a mood of rhythmic light-heartedness (III. Rondel).

Bernard Jackson, collaborated to write the civil rights musical Fly Blackbird. Inspired by the student ‘sit-ins” in Greensboro, North Carolina, the growing movement for civil and human rights, and the pursuit of justice for African Americans throughout the United States, the production reflected the times and the means by which they believed change would come to American society. Opening at the Metropolitan Theater in Los Angeles in 1961, the multiracial cast and underlying message of the production challenged young people to stand up and use their voices to affect change. Fly Blackbird became a call to arms for students on the UCLA campus to join the movement, and won the 1962 Obie Award for Best Musical. Libretto, synopsis, cast, and perusal score available upon request.Tenor and Baritone Solos: SATB Chorus, Piano
43563E796A9E-214A-4C8B-994F-525075E04331A128302Concerto for Piano No. 5 in E-flat, Op. 73 'Emperor'Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) completed his Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-flat shortly after Vienna surrendered to Napleon's invading forces in the spring of 1809. It received its premiere on November 28, 1811 in Leipzig with Friedrich Scheider as the soloist and Johann Schulz conducting the Gewandhaus Orchestra. Its nickname, "The Emperor", stems from the character of the work, as well as its E-flat major tonality, which Beethoven often used to express the heroic, as did many composers after him.
