Comments:for david cerutti
Program Notes:osphescent calcuel was written in three days in New York City (September 18-20, 1981) for David Cerutti. I'm not sure if I began it knowing there was a performance in the works, but he eventually premiered it on his recital at The Mannes College of Music on 30 April 1982, a Friday, at 5:30 pm, when my work served as a buffer zone between Bach's Suite in E flat and the Walton Concerto.
