Ten Miniatures

'Ten Miniatures' was originally written as a piano solo while the composer sat in the orchestra pit during rehearsals of Mozart's 'Cosi fan tutte'. (there were a lot of rests to count) The piece consists of ten contrasting movements each between one and one half, and three minutes long. Conductors have the option of performing the entire ten and one half minute work or selecting different sections to best fit their program.
