WELCOME

Hello and thank you once again for joining my fellow orchestra members and me for another concert here at the Colorado

Symphony.

As we enjoy the heart of the Colorado Symphony’s 15/16 season, we are already excited about announcing our next season of concerts. In the coming 16/17 season, we’ll be presenting some of our favorite Masterworks programs, exploring more Geek and Pops concerts than ever before, and mixing genres together in a way that is sure to bring the music-loving community together like never before.

Building a new season is a truly a collaborative process between the Music Director, the Artistic Committee Committee of which I am a member, the artistic administrators in liaison with all the invited artists, the marketing team, and many others that all come together to bring you a season full of great music.

I am especially thrilled about the world premiere of the Daniel Kellogg violin concerto called Rising Phoenix. It’s a special honor to have a wonderful and talented composer write a piece of this magnitude specifically for me and the Colorado Symphony. To be a part of the creative process, from inception to birth, is very exciting! Daniel Kellogg has found inspiration from the story of the Phoenix - a magical bird of fire found in thousands of years of mythology spanning the globe in numerous cultures and religions. The solo violin will be featured as the voice of the phoenix in a five movement concerto. We hope to be able to keep you updated on its progress and please join us for the world premiere in October.

Speaking from the musicians’ vantage point, we are so happy to see you in the audience. Our hard work only truly comes alive with you here participating with us. We are grateful for your continued support and participation, and look forward to seeing you again in the 2016/17 season!

Yumi Hwang-Williams, Concertmaster

Colorado Symphony’s Senior Vice President of Innovative Planning, Tony Pierce, and Senior Vice President of Artistic Planning, Bob Neu, talk about everything that goes into bringing a new season to life.

— By Seth McNew

The Colorado Symphony has more than 90 performances under more than 43 different concert titles planned for its 2016/17 season. Before a performance can ever be announced, years of planning go into selecting the concert titles, conductors, guest artists, repertoire, dates, and many other aspects of the performance. In this interview, Tony Pierce and Bob Neu draw back the curtain on what it was like to create the Colorado Symphony’s recently released 2016/17 season.

B E H I N D T H E S C E N E S I N T E R V I E W:

HOW A SYMPHONY SEASON IS BORN


Who all is involved with building an upcoming season?Bob: It starts with the Music Director and orchestra’s Artistic Committee, a group of artistic

staff and musicians. Then other staff including Artistic, Marketing, Public Relations and Finance all start to refine the ideas keeping in mind saleability, budget and community interest. We also bring in Development to look at funding possibilities. It’s really a company-wide effort.

Tony: The Artistic Committee then remains engaged throughout the entire process. The calendar is important, so we have to make sure that the series are in place, the artists are available, and the work load of the orchestra is managed meaning we work with artists’ managers and our own personnel manager. We even engage City of Denver planners to make sure that we schedule concerts that coincide with certain city-wide events or avoid others that would make it difficult for our patrons to get to the hall.

How long ago did you start the planning process, and when was it finally set?Bob: We start about two years in advance. We’re already well into planning for the 17/18

season at this point. We work to have a season finalized by late November of each season so that Marketing can begin work on the brochure in order to have a February announcement.

Tony: It can be even longer than that sometimes – I have holds on the Red Rocks Amphitheatre calendar through the summer of 2019. You have to pounce on an opportunity when it’s available. For example, I started talking to the Flaming Lips three years ago to start wrapping our heads around how the concert this summer would happen.

There are a lot of exciting guest artists scheduled for next season. How do you decide who you want to bring to the Colorado Symphony, and how do you get in touch with them?

Tony: The Music Director and past relationships play a large role in who we are able to bring in. Then we are in close contact with management teams in places like New York and LA. The project and repertoire of course play a big role as well, since you want to find the perfect guest artist to complement the concert you are planning.

Bob: I keep a running list of artists who have had successes and should be reengaged along with lists of emerging artists and performers who are established but have never performed with the orchestra. Once we determine who we’d like to invite, I contact their managements to check on interest and availability.

What goes into deciding a concert title, especially for shows that have more than one composer featured?

Tony: We engage with all staff in marketing and artistic to find a title that will resonate with audiences and help them to understand what they will see. The title should relate to the repertoire, but should also be able to promote the underlying theme of the piece. If you are playing Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9 for example, you might want to highlight “triumph” or “brotherhood”.

Bob: It’s not just the concert title either, it’s also the artwork that our marketing team creates which is unique to each concert. They work to pull together the backstory of each program and visualize it. Look at the artwork for next seasons Messiah and Tchaikovsky concerts to see what I mean.

Of all of the concerts planned for next season, which are you most excited for?Bob: That’s such a hard question to answer – we have so many great things on the horizon.

I’d have to choose La Boheme as no one does those passionate operas like Andrew Litton. Also the Bach St. Matthew Passion is at the top of my list. It’s one of THE greatest masterpieces in the repertoire and I think our take on it will be unique and very moving.

Tony: I’m really excited for Second City Guide to the Symphony. The collaboration with the comedy troupe is going to be unique and hilarious. I’m also really excited about Leroy Anderson. It’s such a great program for our traditional pops patrons, and it will feature a lot of our artists as soloists.

MUSICIAN SPOTLIGHT

MEET SUSAN CAHILL: Colorado Symphony Bassist by day…

Bassist, composer, educator, and Colorado Symphony Board of Trustees member Susan Cahill has been a member of the Colorado Symphony since 1997. During her nearly two decades as a member of this orchestra, Susan has been featured as soloist many times both at Boettcher Concert Hall and throughout the country.

However, Susan is around town much more than just on stage at Boettcher. She is the co-Artistic Director of Denver Eclectic Concerts, which holds concerts monthly at Baur’s Listening Lounge, and plays in a variety of chamber ensembles. Recently she has started a band called Grande Orquesta Navarre with DeVotchKa music virtuoso Tom Haggerman and two other members. Aside from these small band engagements, Susan is a member of the Colorado Symphony Artistic Committee and Board of Trustees, teaches lessons to students around Colorado, has been a distinguished faculty member at local universities, and even does some of her own composing.

Guiding the artistic vision of the Colorado Symphony

Susan is a member of the Colorado Symphony Artistic Committee, a group of musicians and artistic staff that meet often to determine the artistic direction of the symphony including concert selection and more.

“Serving on the Artistic Committee is a very important part of my work with the symphony,” says Susan. “Specifically, the Artistic Committee helps shape the entire scope of the musical output of the symphony. We are elected by our colleagues to represent the vision of the musicians, and we work closely with the administration to make sure that we have an exciting balance of tradition and innovation.”

Susan notes that many in the orchestra perform service work, be it serving on committees, selling raffle tickets, or performing for fundraisers. “All of us know the importance of pulling

MUSICIAN SPOTLIGHTtogether to make this an outstanding organization,” she says, “and we are really quite fortunate to have such esprit de corps.”

Building new generations of musical talent

Whether it’s giving private lessons, teaching as faculty at a university, or directing and performing at festivals, Susan is passionate about getting out in the community and teaching.

Susan has been on the faculty at the University of Denver and Colorado College, and has also had performances as faculty at each school. Last spring, her DU faculty solo recital featured her own jazz compositions as well as “Failing, an incredibly difficult piece for String Bass” which you can find on YouTube if you want to hear this magnificent piece. This summer, she’ll be at Colorado College’s Summer Music Festival performing the Rossini Duo with renowned cellist David Ying.

Susan has performed at Festival Mozaic’s yearly concert “Classical Musicians doing UnClassical Things” where she was featured as soloist, composer and chamber musician. She was also recently featured in February in The Co-directors concert of Denver Eclectic, including a performance of her piece “Sonata for Double Bass and iTunes User Agreement”, co-written with local improv actor and symphony supporter, Jon Wilkerson.

And of course — accomplished ensemble player

Aside from all of her duties with the Colorado Symphony and teaching, Susan has found time to work with various ensembles putting on performances around the world. Susan has appeared with the American roots band The Boulder Acoustic Society and was a member of the acclaimed Argentinian tango ensemble Extasis, which performed on three continents.

Most recently, she’s been performing for growing audiences in the new quartet, Grande Orquesta Navarre. “We had a great premiere performance on the Denver Eclectic Series in December, and even got a nice write up in the Denver Post. We are currently working on getting that live recording out to the public.”

Your bass is worth how much?!

Susan’s bass was made by Guiseppe Santori of Turin in 1823. A rare instrument with incredible sound, the bass is one of the highest valued instruments in the Colorado Symphony. Just how much is it worth?

“Ah, always a delicate question, a bit like asking someone their party affiliation. Let’s just say less than a nice Cheeseman park condo, but not by much!”

MASTERWORKS BIOGRAPHIESJEFFREY KAHANE, conductor and piano

Equally at home at the keyboard or on the podium, Jeffrey Kahane has established an international reputation as a truly versatile artist, recognized by audiences around the world for his mastery of a diverse repertoire ranging from Bach, Mozart and Beethoven to Gershwin, Golijov and John Adams. Since making his Carnegie Hall debut in 1983, Mr. Kahane has given recitals in many of the nation’s major music centers including New York, Chicago, Boston, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Atlanta. He appears as soloist with major orchestras such as the New York Philharmonic, Cleveland Orchestra, Los Angeles Philharmonic,

Philadelphia Orchestra and the San Francisco Symphony and is also a popular figure at all of the major US summer festivals. Kahane is equally well-known for his collaborations with artists and chamber ensembles such as Yo-Yo Ma, Dawn Upshaw, Thomas Quasthoff and the Emerson and Takacs Quartets. Currently in his 19th season as Music Director of the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, Mr. Kahane concluded his tenure as Music Director of the Colorado Symphony in June 2010 and for ten seasons was Music Director of the Santa Rosa Symphony, where he is now Conductor Laureate. An avid linguist who reads widely in a number of ancient and modern languages, Mr. Kahane received a Master’s Degree in Classics from the University of Colorado at Boulder in 2011. Beginning in the fall of 2015, he will be a Visiting Professor of Keyboard Studies at the University of Southern California Thornton School of Music. Jeffrey Kahane resides in Santa Rosa with his wife, Martha, a clinical psychologist in private practice. They have two children — Gabriel, a composer, pianist and singer/songwriter and Annie, a dancer and poet.

GABRIEL KAHANE, vocals and guitar

Over the last decade, Gabriel Kahane has quietly established himself as one of the leading exponents of American song, grafting a deep interest in character and narrative to a keen sense of harmony and rhythm. On the heels of his major label debut, The Ambassador, hailed by Rolling Stone as "one of the year's very best albums," Kahane recently released his fifth LP, The Fiction Issue, an album of chamber works performed by string quartet Brooklyn Rider, alongside Shara Nova (Worden) of My Brightest Diamond, and Kahane himself. This season, Gabriel makes his European debut with concerts at the Paris Philharmonie, Finland’s National Theater in Helsinki

(with violinist Pekka Kuusisto and the Ostrobothnian Chamber Orchestra), London’s King Place, as well as dates in Glasgow, Bremen, Lyon, and Nantes. He also appears in recital throughout North America with pianist-composer Timo Andres, culminating in a second headline evening at Carnegie Hall. A tireless collaborator, Kahane has worked with artists ranging from Sufjan Stevens and Chris Thile to John Adams and Jeremy Denk. He has been commissioned by, among others, the Brooklyn Academy of Music, Carnegie Hall, the Los Angeles Philharmonic, and Orpheus Chamber Orchestra. An avid theater artist, Gabriel starred at BAM in the critically-lauded staged version of The Ambassador, directed by Tony-winner John Tiffany. He is also the composer-lyricist of the musical February House, which was premiered in 2012 at the Public Theater, for whom Gabriel is currently writing a new evening-length work. A fellow of both the MacDowell Colony and Yaddo, Gabriel lives in Brooklyn, NY.

MASTERWORKS PROGRAM NOTESLEONARD BERNSTEIN (1918-1990): Fancy FreeLeonard Bernstein was born on August 25, 1918 in Lawrence, Massachusetts, and died on October 14, 1990 in New York City. Fancy Free was composed in 1944 and premiered on April 18, 1944 in New York, conducted by the composer. The score calls for woodwinds in pairs plus piccolo, four horns, three trumpets, three trombones, tuba, timpani, percussion, piano and strings. Duration is about 30 minutes.. Fancy Free was last performed on July 3, 1976, with Bruce Hangen conducting.

Leonard Bernstein was 25 years old when he came to national prominence. On his birthday, August 25, 1943, he was named Assistant Conductor of the New York Philharmonic; on November 14th he substituted at short notice for the ailing Bruno Walter in a nationally broadcast concert that made him an overnight sensation. At that same time, he received a commission from New York’s Ballet Theatre to compose the score for his first ballet, Fancy Free, a production that would also mark the debut of Jerome Robbins as a choreographer. Oliver Smith created the decor and Kermit Love designed the costumes. Fancy Free, conducted by the composer, premiered at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York on April 18, 1944. It was a smash. The ballet played 99 times in New York that year, and Bernstein, Adolf Green and Betty Comden made its premise (though not its music) into the musical On the Town, which opened on Broadway on December 28, 1944. Bernstein derived an orchestral suite from the complete score of the ballet and conducted its first performance with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra on January 14, 1945.

Fancy Free is set in a deserted street in lower Manhattan in 1944. It is night. Three sailors on shore leave burst onto the scene, joking and joshing, ready for fun. They enter a bar and order three beers, but soon return to the street, where a pretty brunette passing by captures their attention. They tease her, she seems interested, and two of the boys strut away on her arms, leaving the third sailor on his own. Just as he heads back into the bar, another girl, an alluring redhead, appears and accepts his invitation to join him for a drink. They dance a Pas de Deux of mounting intensity that signals their mutual attraction. Their reverie is broken by the return of the other sailors with the brunette. The boys learn, without much surprise, that the two girls are old friends. They all stroll into the bar together, where they settle on a dance competition, judged by the girls, to decide which two of the three sailors will have companions for the evening. The first sailor does a boisterous Galop, the second a lyrical Waltz, and the third a sinuous Latin Danzon. The contest settles nothing, however, and the sailors resort to a brawl to decide the matter. The girls stalk out of the bar, and disappear into the night by the time the boys have finished their fight. The trio is suddenly struck by the humor of their situation — they have beaten each other up in vain — and they share a friendly drink before strolling back into the deserted street. A tempting blonde saunters by. The boys hesitate for only a moment before following her off into the city lights.

MASTERWORKS PROGRAM NOTESGABRIEL KAHANE (B. 1981): Crane Palimpsest for Vocalist and OrchestraGabriel Kahane was born in 1981 in Venice Beach, California. Crane Palimpsest was composed in 2012, and premiered on March 22, 2012 at Zankel Hall in Carnegie Hall in New York City by the American Composers Orchestra, conducted by George Manahan with the composer as soloist. The score calls for flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, (all four doubling on tuned beer bottle), two horns, two trumpets, trombone, tuba, percussion, strings, and the vocalist also playing piano and acoustic guitar. Duration is about 20 minutes. This is the first performance by the orchestra.

“Gabriel Kahane,” according to the biography on his web site (gabrielkahane.com), “is a songwriter, singer, pianist, composer, devoted amateur cook, guitarist and occasional banjo player … [who] writes string quartets and musicals and pop songs, with his heart fully in all of those endeavors.” Kahane, the son of acclaimed pianist and conductor Jeffrey Kahane, was born in 1981 in the artsy Los Angeles suburb of Venice Beach, moved between the coasts several times during his youth, and spent a year studying jazz at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston before completing his undergraduate degree at Brown. He moved to New York City after graduating in 2003 and worked as music director with the newly founded theater company Les Freres Corbusier, which won an Obie Award that year for its Off-Off-Broadway premiere of the satirical musical A Very Merry Unauthorized Children’s Scientology Pageant. Kahane established his reputation as a composer and performer with appearances and the recording of his 2006 song cycle Craigslistlieder, which took its texts from want ads posted online on Craigslist. (Zachary Woolfe of The New York Times called it “kind of classical-yet-poppy, ironic-yet-musical” — the song titled Neurotic and Lonely, for example, is based on a post from a “slightly hunched, occasionally employed anthropologist, chainsmoking jew, currently living with parents, off from school to deal with emotional problems [medicated], seeks gorgeous artsy genius woman interested in philosophical discourse, making out, television, woody allen movies.”) Kahane has since received wide notice for the chamber and vocal works he has performed from small clubs to such prestigious venues as Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Library of Congress, Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles, and the Vail, Caramoor and Aspen summer festivals.

Kahane has collaborated with singer-songwriters Sufjan Stevens and Rufus Wainwright, appeared in concert with Chris Thile, Brad Mehldau, Alisa Weilerstein, John Adams and the Kronos Quartet, received commissions from the Los Angeles Philharmonic, American Composers Orchestra, Orpheus Chamber Orchestra and other noted ensembles and performers, and been a Fellow at the MacDowell Colony and at Yaddo. Kahane released his second CD in 2011 (the song cycle Where Are the Arms), premiered his full-length musical February House at New York’s Public Theater in May 2012 and recorded its score on the StorySound label, and recently completed Gabriel’s Guide to the 48 States, a song cycle based on the American Guide Series published by the Works Progress Administration, the New Deal program to put Americans back to work during the Great Depression. His 2014 CD release, The Ambassador, for which he used ten buildings in Los Angeles to inspire songs about life in that city from World War II to the present, was staged by director John Tiffany and set designer Christine Jones, both Tony Award winners. (The fashionable Ambassador Hotel was a favorite celebrity haunt, location for two dozen high-profile feature films, host to early Academy Award ceremonies, home to the legendary Cocoanut Grove nightclub, and site of the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy; it was demolished in 2005.)

Kahane composed Crane Palimpsest in 2012 on a joint commission from the American Composers Orchestra and the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra; it was premiered on March 22,


MASTERWORKS PROGRAM NOTES2012 at Zankel Hall in New York’s Carnegie Hall by the ACO conducted by George Manahan, with the composer as soloist. Kahane wrote of it, “Crane Palimpsest is a meditation on the Brooklyn Bridge that juxtaposes settings of stanzas from Hart Crane’s poem To Brooklyn Bridge with songs set to my own lyrics in response to Crane’s text. [A ‘palimpsest,’ according to the New Oxford American Dictionary, is ‘a manuscript or piece of writing material on which the original writing has been effaced to make room for later writing but of which traces remain; something reused or altered but still bearing visible traces of its earlier form.’] I’ve literalized the idea of ‘the bridge’ in the sense that two distinct musical vocabularies are in play and cross paths — the first being the more formal language heard in the introduction and the first several stanzas of the Crane poem, the second being the vernacular or pop-based harmonic language in the songs with my own words. As the piece reaches a kind of peripeteia [i.e., a turning point] around the line ‘O harp and altar,’ it’s as if the two languages meet on the bridge and are exchanged: The final song with my own lyrics begins in a dense and dissonant setting before giving way to the final stanzas of the Crane poem, which are set in an unapologetically open harmonic atmosphere.”

I.

How many dawns, chill from his rippling rest,The seagull’s wings shall dip and pivot him,Shedding white rings of tumult, building highOver the chained bay waters Liberty.

Then with inviolate curve forsake our eyes.As apparitional as sails that crosssome pages of figures to be filed away;til elevators drop us from our day ...

a. Vinegar Hill

How many dawns have I wokenclutching my head, filled with this dread?

The girls were all lined up and smoking,wired to feign, a tired refrain ...

And I walk outside and the street’s a messcause the city got drunk in a little black dressI walk to the bridge and think of Hart Crane.

Seagulls and summer suits, touristswith novocain hearts, staring at the food carts;

Boys on their bicycles havefashionable haircuts well-shinedFrank Gehry-designed

And I cross the river the salt and foam,the sun begins to shiver as I make my way homeand I think of Hart Crane, the bridge on his mind.

O Grey Towers, cloud and thunderThere for hours, bowed in wonderSky, the scale of, perfect tensionHigh, the veil of, your ascension

How many dawns have lost myselfcrossed myself, under your weight?Concrete, the strait ...

I fell in love with the view whenthe city went dark; I slept in the park.

Oh the bridge may sag, but it will not fallwere the engineer’s words in that great marble

hallto those men, and they heard the call.

II.

I think of cinemas, panoramic sleights,with multitudes bent toward some flashing

scene.Never disclosed but hastened to again,Foretold with other eyes on the same screen.


And Thee, across the harbor, silver-pacedAs though the sun took step of thee, yet leftSome motion ever unspent in the stride, —Implicitly thy freedom staying thee!

b. BMT

Heard you calling my namethe teeth of the city they cameinto view, smear of blue,how you wait to be seen.

Now so much grease on the glassfrom all of the people who passthrough the car, grip the bar,oh your angles are clean.

When I sleep on the trainthe rats will get on with their game,chew the rail, through the railand get out of the way.

Spires and steel will fall,all the secrets of thecity will reveal themselves,the wires and wheel will call,all the fishermen are ...they are frightened by the cloudy wonder.

Called you up just to talk,you said “shall we go for a walk?”time was set, and we met,it went mostly as planned.

But on the promenade slatehow you caught your shoe on the grate,such a fall, I recall,you kept holding my hand.

I said this is the place,with two fingers I touched your face,turned your head, face was red,feeling pride for the view,

You were tender and sweet,I lifted you off of your feet,kissed you slow, in the glowof the bridge and the blue,

and the metal machinethat carried me out of that dream,plastic chair, I don’t care,I was thinking of you.

III.

Out of some subway scuttle, cell or loftA bedlamite speeds to thy parapets,Tilting there momently, shrill shirt ballooningA jest falls from the speechless caravan!

Down Wall from girder into street noon leaksa rip-tooth of the sky’s acetylene;All afternoon the cloudflown derricks turn ...Thy cables breathe the North Atlantic still.

c. The Navy Yard

Side by side on Flushing by the rail,where unattended mansions fail,Walked in light, with little left to sayI’ll say it anyway.

Touch your hand mechanically retractand in that gesture there’s a fact,I demand to hear it spoken loudfor I am not too proud.

Oh my love, is it done,is it done is it done,is it done, oh darling,oh my love, you were one,you were one, you were one,you were one, who could suspend ...

Wind is high the river shrill and grey,we walk the bridge before you walk away,All real life is vivid when it breaks,a decade or a day,

Washington Roebling, like his father before himdreamt of caissons and catenarieswhen his mind was unstrung.

Emily Roebling, while her husband was ailing,fought off all of his adversaries,she was quiet, unsung.

The bridge will take your breath away —all the rumors say it’s so,we pray that there’s no death todayamong the men who work below.

There in the window, Roebling watched the proceedings,

he was too sick for ceremony,how he openly wept.

And Hart Crane was drinking by the same drafty window,

when the ghost of the engineer, right throughthe floorboards he crept.

The bridge will take your breath away,in the shadow there’s a plan,I pray that I find peace today,and for a sympathetic man,

There in the window, Hart Crane worships the wires,

and he chokes out a tiny whisper to the visiting ghost.

The bridge is the Godhead, unconflicted cathedral

where wires and the anchorage are a kind of heavenly host.

V.

Again the traffic lights that skim thy swiftUnfractioned idiom, immaculate sigh of stars.Beading thy path — condense eternity:And we have seen night lifted in thine arms ...

Under Thy shadow by the piers I waited.Only in darkness is thy shadow clear.The city’s fiery parcels all undone,Already snow submerges an iron year.

O sleepless as the river under thee,Vaulting the sea, the prairies’ dreaming sod,Unto us lowliest sweep, descendand of the curveship lend a myth to God.

GEORGE GERSHWIN (1898-1937): Concerto in F for Piano and OrchestraGeorge Gershwin was born on September 26, 1898 in Brooklyn, New York, and died on July 11, 1937 in Hollywood, California. The Concerto in F was composed in 1925, and premiered on December 3, 1925 in New York, conducted by Walter Damrosch with Gershwin as soloist. The score calls for piccolo, two flutes, two oboes, English horn, two B-flat clarinets, bass clarinet, two bassoons, four horns, three trumpets, three trombones, tuba, timpani, percussion and strings. The work was last performed on May 8-10, 2009, with Jeffrey Kahane as the soloist and Larry Rachleff conducting the orchestra.

Walter Damrosch, conductor of the New York Symphony and one of this country’s most prominent musical figures for the half-century before World War II, was in the Aeolian Hall audience when George Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue exploded above the musical world on February 12, 1924. He recognized Gershwin’s genius (and, no doubt, the opportunity for wide publicity), and approached him a short time later with a proposal for another large-scale work. A concerto for piano was agreed upon, and Gershwin was awarded a commission from the New York Symphony to compose the piece, and also to be the soloist at its premiere and a half dozen subsequent concerts. The story that Gershwin then rushed out and bought a reference book explaining what a concerto is probably is apocryphal. He did, however, study the scores of some of the concertos of earlier masters to discover how they had handled the problems of structure and instrumental balance. He made the first extensive sketches for the work while in London during May 1925. By July, back home, he was able to play for his friends large fragments of the evolving work, tentatively entitled “New York Concerto.” The first movement was completed by the end of that month, the second and third by September, and the orchestration carried out in October and November, by which time the title had become simply Concerto in F.

Gershwin provided a short analysis of the Concerto for the New York Tribune: “The first movement employs a Charleston rhythm. It is quick and pulsating, representing the young, enthusiastic spirit of American life. It begins with a rhythmic motif given out by the kettledrums, supported by other percussion instruments and with a Charleston motif introduced by bassoon, horns, clarinets and violas. The principal theme is announced by the bassoon. Later, a second theme is introduced by the piano. The second movement has a poetic, nocturnal atmosphere which has come to be referred to as the American blues, but in a purer form than that in which they are usually treated. The final movement is an orgy of rhythms, starting violently and keeping the same pace throughout.”

Though Gershwin based his Concerto loosely on classical formal models, its structure is episodic in nature. His words above do not mention several other melodies that appear in the first and second movements, nor the return of some of those themes in the finale as a means of unifying the work’s overall structure.
