Symposium to feature orchestra
Performances of nine new compositions played by the Kansas City Philharmonic Orchestra feature the eighth annual Symposium of Contemporary American Music here May 2-4.
A grant of $21,495 from the Rockefeller Foundation makes possible use of the Philharmonic as the symposium orchestra. Several of the works performed next month will be included by the Philharmonic on its Connoisseur Concert series next year.
Three of the nine compositions are by KU faculty members. They are "Symphony No.1" by Edward C. Mattila, assistant professor of music theory; "Rhapsody by Orchestra" by David S. Bates, instructor of music theory; and "Day of Days" by Stanley N. Shumway, assistant professor of music theory.
Other works to be performed are "Concertino for Cello and Orchestra" by Maurice Weed, Northern Illinois University; "Symphony No. 3" by Ray Luke, Oklahoma City University; "Music for Orchestra" by Elliott Schwartz, Bowdoin College, Brunswick, Me; "Second Symphony" by Barney Childs, Dyer, Calif; "Symphony No. 2" by Francis Thorne, New York City; and "Symphony No. 1" by Donald Keats, Antioch College, Yellow Springs, O.
