Serenade in A Major
An affectionate tribute to Czech-American composer Karel Husa, the composer's teacher at Cornell University. Two traditional Czech songs are quoted that Husa has used in his own music, as well as the opening bars of Smetana's Ma vlast. The score is filled with lyricism, charm, and gentle wit, but leavened by an occasional touch of melancholy. Instrumentation: Small Orchestra (Flute, Clarinet, Bassoon, Horn, Strings 6-6-4-4-2) Duration: 22:00
