White Dwarf (for Soprano or Mezzo, Tuba, and Percussion Quartet)
White Dwarf (for Soprano or Mezzo, Tuba, and Percussion Quartet)
Soprano (or Mezzo-Soprano), Tuba, and Four Percussionists
Composer's Note:
White Dwarf (referencing a newly discovered star) is a setting of whimsical and, at times, sardonic poems by the late John Updike. The work, originally composed for Mezzo-Soprano, Tuba, Piano, and off-stage sound effects, was re-orchestrated in this version at the request of Don Liuzzi for a concert at The Curtis Institute of Music. Having observed a number of performances of this work, I can safely say that audiences have enjoyed this work immensely.
