| Title Name | Revelation Studies: A Ballet for Two Carillonneurs |
| Marketing Copy | Premiere: University of Michigan, Summer 1978. Review (Diapason, Oct. 1978): “The concluding work was the premiere of William Bolcom’s Revelation Studies, an eight-movement work based on Biblical themes and commissioned by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. Each movement includes choreography, and several movements require two players at the carillon; in these, Mr. (Hudson) Ladd was assisted by John Gouwens. The work made a brilliant finale to both the concert and the congress, and the composer was present to acknowledge the ovation from the large audience. This production had required the building of a substantial stage at the foot of the tower, as well as the use of lighting and costumes; the timing of the conclusion was very good: the heavens opened with a summer downpour immediately following! |
