| Program Notes | Critic Tim Page of the Washington Post has called Haskell Small's Symphony for Solo Piano "a serious and substantial composition that deserves a permanent place in the keyboard repertory". The piece received its World Premiere in April 1999 at Washington DC's Phillips Collection. It was subsequently performed in New York City at Columbia University's Miller Theatre in May of that year. October of 2000 brought several performances in Kanazawa and Hayama, (a suburb of Tokyo) Japan. A section of the work, originally commissioned by the Washington Ballet, choreographed by Lynn Cote and titled "Subterranean", was performed with the composer playing live at Washington DC's Kennedy Center as part of their 1997 Winter Series. Haskell Small has been hailed by the Washington Post as possessing "rich imagination and assured mastery" and by England's Musical Times for his "dazzlingly prodigious technique". He has concertized with great success in major European capitals, South America, Japan and China and has been enthusiastically received by audiences at Carnegie Hall, Alice Tully Hall, the Kennedy Center, National Gallery and the Spoleto Festival. Mr. Small was featured in the PBS television special Celebration of the Piano, taped at Wolf Trap, and he has toured extensively as a recipient of a solo recitalist grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. He has recorded for the Albany, 4Tay, Ongaku, Northeastern and Centaur labels. He is a Steinway Artist. Haskell Small |
