Program Notes: | for Karl was written for Karl Bargen (completed on April 14, 1982) in gratitude for his friendship, and admiration of his personal kindness and musical grace on many freelancing adventures during my early days in New York City. We performed a wide range of music from Dennis Riley to Iannis Xenakis, and perhaps this is reflected in the intense but compressed qualities of this short piece. David Cerutti gave the first performance on March 24, 1983 in the Recital Hall of the Mannes College of Music. |
