EXCURSIONS is a one-movement work exploring two “characters.†A rhapsodic, descending passage is introduced by the cello, followed by a static, chorale-like phrase for the violin and cello. Their individual developments are separated by a slow, contrasting middle section. The composer has written: “This is analogous to situations in life: we stand by a crossroad, choosing one option and forfeiting the other. But in art, the realm of the imagination, we can perhaps afford to pursue more than one route to its ultimate destination… or can we? It is symbolic that in this work both roads eventually lead to the same place.â€.Excursi ons for violin, cello and piano, is a one-movement work of tripartite structure in which materials explored in the first of three large sections are brought back in the last section. The traditional statement-contrast-restat ement form, which is readily suggested by such a description, is, however, not at all in the mold in which the work is cast. Rather, my aim was to subject the essential materials of the piece (two “characters†–the rhapsodic, descending passage played by the cello in the very opening and, later, a static, slow moving, chorale-like phrase for the violin and cello) to two entirely different developments separated by a slow, contrasting middle section. This is analogous to an exploration of the ramifications that two divergent choices made by the same person might lead to. In life, as we stand by a crossroad, choosing one option usually means having to forfeit the other. But in art, the realm of the imagination, we can perhaps afford to pursue more than one route to its ultimate destination…or can we? It is, I believe, symbolic that in this work both roads eventually lead to the same place: in composing Excursions, it seemed absolutely inescapable that at the end the slow, contrasting middle sections – both more resigned and peaceful than the battling spirits of the outer parts – should return briefly to end the work. The piano trio combination (once highly favored, but to this composer still as challenging today) is approached here as a collaborative effort of three equal soloists – partners. Of the available pairings, the two strings find themselves occasionally approached as a team pitted against the piano. The cello-piano combination is also not uncommon here, and there is an extended violin cadenza toward the end of the piece. The writing for the three instruments is closely and at times interlinked, but the players are all instructed to play from scores. Excursions was first performed at Brandeis University in 1982.

Compo sed for cellist Barbara Haffner, CADENZAS AND VARIATIONS III is based on the opening of the composer’s Kaddish Requiem composed in the fall of 1971. When Wernick decided to revise portions of the requiem’s first movement, he became intrigued with where the opening cadenza might lead in a totally different context, leading him to use it as the “theme†for the 1973 work. Much of the work was written in the exotic city of Dar es Salaam in a studio overlooking a luxuriant tropical garden of bouganvillia, hibiscus, wild orchids, and flamboyants. None of this is evident in the music, not even the “waltzing†dove which was wonderfully entertaining except during working hours, when he nearly drove the composer mad.

There are guitar players, and then there are rock stars. It Might Get Loud is an epic, exhilarating backstage pass into the world of the latter. Over the course of one day, three generations of electric guitar phenoms come together, crank up their amps, and let it roll. Documentarian Davis Guggenheim gives us so much more than an all-star jam session (that alone would make even the gnarliest of rock geeks giddy); he leads us to these artists' inner sanctums and illuminates the paths each one traveled to forge a sound of his own. We begin to understand how a London studio musician, a Dublin schoolboy, and a one-time furniture upholsterer from Detroit redefined the horizons of guitar playing. Meanwhile, Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin), the Edge (U2), and Jack White (The White Stripes) seem genuinely to enjoy each other's company while sharing riffs, swapping stories, and divulging their distinct philosophies of craft. This soulful opus is at once a portrait of each artist and a captivating examination of the creative process. It Might Get Loud does get loud, and in the process, opens up our minds and hearts to a whole new way of listening to and enjoying what it means to rock.

This piece was composed in 2009 for a commission by Shinjuku Bunka Center to commemorate its thirty years since its opening.It is an impressive work with a brilliant, bright fanfare, and the stately sound of the church organ reverberating through the concert hall. The first performance was given by Hiroko Takahashi, a house organist of the center, with Shinjuku City Wind Orchestra conducted by Shigeto Ishizu. Original works for church organ and wind orchestra are surprisingly scarce. This is a fresh opening piece, to be followed by an organ solo which might lead to a march.Dit werk is in 2009 gecomponeerd in opdracht van het Shinjuku Bunka Center, ter gelegenheid van het dertigjarig bestaan van dit concert- en cultuurgebouw. Het is een indrukwekkend stuk muziek met een schitterende, stralende fanfare, waarbij de orgelklanken door de concertzaal schallen. De première werd gespeeld door Hiroko Takahashi, huisorganist van het centrum, en het Shinjuku City Wind Orchestra onder leiding van Shigeto Ishizu. Verrassend genoeg zijn er niet veel oorspronkelijke composities voor orgel en blaasorkest geschreven. Gelukkig is dit een mooie aanvulling op het repertoire. Dit levendige openingswerk kan bijvoorbeeld heel goed worden gevolgd door een solowerkvoor orgel, waarna een mars op het programma zou kunnen staan. Dieses Stück wurde im Auftrag des Shinjuku Bunka Centers komponiert, zu Ehren des 30-jährigen Jubiläum der Eröffnung dieses Kultur- und Konzertzentrums in Tokio. Celebration Fanfare ist ein eindrucksvolles Werk mit einer brillanten, strahlenden Fanfare und einer Kirchenorgel, deren feierlicher Klang durch den Konzertsaal hallt. Bei der Uraufführung spielte Hiroko Takahashi, der Hausorganist des Zentrums, zusammen mit dem Shinjuku City Wind Orchestra unter der Leitung von Shigeto Ishizu. Originalwerke für Kirchenorgel und Blasorchester sind überraschenderweise sehr rar. Dieses Stück eignet sich perfekt als Eröffnungsstück, dem ein Orgelsolo und dann eventuell einMarsch folgen könnte. Cette pièce a été composée en 2009 la demande du Shinjuku Bunka Center, Tokyo, pour marquer le trentième anniversaire de son ouverture. C’est une œuvre impressionnante combinant une fanfare éclatante et le son majestueux de l’orgue résonnant travers la salle de concert. Elle a été créée par Hiroko Takahashi, l’organiste du Centre, et l’orchestre d’harmonie de Shinjuku City, sous le b ton de Shigeto Ishizu. Les œuvres écrites pour orgue et orchestre d’harmonie sont rares. Fraîche et originale, cette pièce d’ouverture sera suivie d’un solo d’orgue pouvant mener une marche.
