Program Note:
Composed at the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts during summer 1991 and first performed by Donna Hagen a few months later in Madison, Wisconsin, this four minute piece is subtitled Homage à Bud Powell and ploughs a warm, lubricious jazz groove. The piece was folded into the Concerto for Flügelhorn the next year.
