Close-Up: How do they memorize all those notes? By Tim Madigan Star-Telegram Staff Writer William Bolcom's composition, Nine Bagatelles, is a tricky modern work first made available to competitors only a few weeks before the 10th Van Cliburn International Piano Competition. Yet Lev Vinocour was confident he had the piece safely mastered. Until Sunday night, that is, and those anxious moments before Vinocour took the stage for his semifinal recital. Should he use the printed music while performing the Cliburn's commissioned work, or should he fly without a net, playing a new piece from memory, exhibiting the sort of bravado pioneered by the great Franz Liszt? Those questions lingered in Vinocour's mind, even as the Russian pianist opened his recital with a Beethoven sonata. "I was playing and I was thinking as I was playing, 'Am I still playing the Bolcom with a score?' " Vinocour said after his performance, which was roundly panned by the critics. He didn't decide for sure until after finishing the Beethoven. He would use the sheet music, a choice he seemed to regret afterward. "I am such a coward," he said. "I was absolutely hysterical about that."

LEONARD BERNSTEIN (1918-1990) 'The Age of Anxiety' WILLIAM BOLCOM (b1938) Piano Concerto Excerpts from the sleeve notes Part One A. The Prologue - four mixed-up characters in a Third Avenue bar try to sort themselves out: Quant, son of an Irish immigrant; Malin, a medical intelligence officer in the Canadian Air Force; Rosetta, a buyer for a big department store; and Emble, who is in the Navy. A very soft duet for clarinets is followed by a scalic descent on the flute acting as a 'bridge into the realms of the unconscious'. B. The Seven Ages - a four-fold discussion, 'reasonable and didactic in tone'. The seven variations, without a common theme, arise from aspects of previous sections. 1. A lyrical piano solo ending with the scalic descent on the harp. 2. Interactions between piano and orchestra. 3. Cantabile strings without piano. 4. A miniature scherzo in five-time (3/8 + 2/8). 5. A clarinet initiates a restless agitato. 6. A wistful piano solo. 7. Woodwinds lead into a long scalic descent from the piano. C. The Seven Stages - seven more variations representing a dream-odyssey which symbolizes the inner journey of the four characters in various relationships leading to a 'hectic but indecisive close'.

"With a Song in Their Hearts: Bolcom and Morris" Seattle native and UW alumnus William Bolcom served as the Hans and Thelma Lehmann Distinguished Professor in the UW music department during 1993-94. He received the Pulitzer Prize in 1988 for his work, 12 New Etudes for Piano Bolcom studied composition at the UW under John Verrall; later, he studied with Darius Milhaud. Bolcom has composed I Will Breathe A Mountain , premiered by Marilyn Horne at the Carnegie Hall Centennial; Third Sonata for Violin and Piano , commissioned for and premiered by Nadia Salerno-Sonnenberg at the Aspen Music Festival; and Songs of Innocence and of Experience , described as "a masterpiece of our time and place" by The New York Times Bolcom's 1992 opera, McTeague , commissioned and premiered by the Chicago Civic Light Opera, earned praise from the New York Magazine for its "gallant effort to restore music to its rightful place as the dominant and defining element in the operatic mix." The opera was televised by the Public Broadcasting Service as The Real McTeague , a television special conceived by Robert Altman. The Los Angeles Times wrote: "The composer, a master of his complex craft, wrote an accessible score that cannily bridged period pop, mild-mannered modernism and old-fashioned operatic convention."

58. James Lampert's CD Reviews Joan Morris is a mezzosoprano specializing in popular music of the first halfof this century. Her husband, william bolcom, is a pianist and composer. http://www.hb.quik.com/jamesl/CDReviews.html

James Lampert's CD Reviews These reviews are not particularly impartial or scientific. But I highly recommend these CDs to all music lovers. Unless otherwise noted, all are available either from your local dealer in classical recordings, from The Public Radio MusicSource , or from Amazon. Joan Morris and William Bolcom Joan Morris is a mezzo-soprano specializing in popular music of the first half of this century. Her husband, William Bolcom, is a pianist and composer. Ms. Morris's voice and style is ideally suited to the material, for her singing is quite clear, and she handles both sentimentality and humor quite well. I had the opportunity to meet them, briefly, after a concert at the Irvine Barclay Theatre, in Irvine, CA. But one warning: Joan Morris doesn't compromise on lyrics. The results can be a bit amusing, as when she sings love songs written from a male point of view, or "politically incorrect," or even a bit risque (as in Tamara, Queen of the Nile, from her [out-of-print, I think] cabaret song album, Lime Jello ), but they're always authentic, always delivered with a lovely voice and a sense of humor, and always serve the music well.
