Following the great success of this musical in German, it is now also available in English. Everything seems to be going wrong at Circus Allegro. Bruno the Bear refuses to appear on stage, his assistant, Bella Stella, has disappeared, and finally, even the tiger escapes! Circus director Ricardo Grande has to improvise constantly. Luckily, his new assistant, clumsy August the Clown, always has a brilliant idea just at the right time. Despite all mishaps, the audience gets to experience a splendid circus evening. And in the middle of all the excitement, the tiger and Bella suddenly reappear. The audience is swept off its feet. Wherever the world-famous Circus Allegro appears, audiences shed tears of joy and are enchanted - visually, acoustically and emotionally. The individual numbers of this children's musical are composed in different styles and the songs can be performed either with an orchestra or just with a piano. Score available separately - see item CA.1282500.

When I wrote Romanza del Desierto I had been living in Arizona and I would frequently camp in the desert with friends. The setting sun behind the mountains and the beautiful light it created was my inspiration. It made all the saguaro, palo verde trees and cholla cactus take on a whole new look. At the same time I was trying to create an alternative to the famous and anonymous Romanza. Several times when playing it I have seen women shed a tear.

The text for Dust came to me in a season of reflection. As educators and mentors to the generations that come after us, we have a responsibility to provide tools so that others can shape their future. Overtime, it can become easy to lose one's personal vision for one's self when influenced by so many outside factors. When the pressure builds, it can almost feel like a self-reckoning; an opportunity to build ourselves again. Though we are influenced by our surroundings, we are all unique in our purpose and design!These questions of self-reflection came first:How much of me flows from their blood?How much of me is built of their flesh?How much of me is manifested from their dreams?And just like our own identities, the rest of the poem begin to take shape. I hope that this text speaks to you wherever you are in your discovery and journey to your most authentic self.DustI am rubbleCarved into my ruins, you will find my ancestry interwoven with my identityHow much of me flows from their blood?How much of me is built of their flesh?How much of me is manifested from their dreams?The only way to my truth is through my foundationI rage against those who would dare covet this sacred spaceI am the temple and the monumentThis is holy ground.I must demolish myself.Tear down the walls that have held up your visions and destroyed mine.I must restore myself in my own image.And when the dust settles, you can see my bones.Pillars of strength, marble, and earthWalls painted with my blood, cracked with time, polished like my skin(Golden)I will not be complete, but I will be homethe dust settlesAnd we build again—Coty Raven Morris      .

Leokadiya Kashperova (1872–1940), hitherto consigned to a footnote in musical history as Stravinsky's piano teacher, is undergoing rediscovery. A double graduate of the St Petersburg Conservatoire, she emerged as a virtuoso pianist and composer in the romantic tradition. She was associated with some of the great musicians of her day, including Balakirev and Auer. She performed in both Germany and the UK in the 1900s, but her career petered out after 1920. Following her graduation from the St Petersburg Conservatoire Kashperova became personally acquainted with the poet Yakov Polonsky and often attended his literary gatherings. When he died in 1898 Kashperova responded by setting his enchanting and mystical 'legend' To a Child in Answer to the Question: Where Do the Stars Come From? The baritone soloist takes the role of the father or grandfather who endeavours to answer the riddle posed in the title. He decides to relate 'a tale of old, an Eastern legend' which recounts how, long ago, the flowers would weep, so afraid were they of the dark. In response an archangel (soprano solo) descends to Earth and is so moved by the flowers’ anguished appeal, she gathers 'all their tears in chalice gold / And bears them up to God in Heav'n above'. The baritone narrates the final scene as the Almighty casts the tears across the firmament, thus creating the constellations. The child’s question is answered, and the peaceful domesticity of the opening scene returns.
