PROGRAM NOTES

This work first appeared as Girolamo Frescobaldi’s Toccata in a collection of six
pieces for cello and piano by Gaspar Cassadó. Hans Kinsler, the conductor of
the National Symphony Orchestra at the time, recognized the potential of the
Toccata and had it transcribed for orchestra. It was published by Mills Music
in 1942 with the note “Freely transcribed for orchestra by Hans Kindler.” It was
later transcribed for band by Earl Slocum for his University of North Carolina
band in 1956.
In a letter dated 3 April 1989, Slocum admitted “I have known for years that
Frescobaldi was not the composer. I kept this to myself, only telling a few
friends. I give Dr. William Newman, my colleague at UNC, credit for uncovering
the real fact.” For many years, countless conductors, musicologists, and arrang-
ers had doubted the authenticity of the Frescobaldi Toccata. In December 1968,
the Duke University band opened a concert with Toccata; the program notes
attributing the score to Cassadó. After many years of research, Robert Halseth
concluded that “despite the apparent opportunism on the part of Cassadó, Toc-
cata remains an appealing and interesting work.”

The famous Rhineland mystic, nun, healer and composer, Hildegard von Bingen
(1098-1179) hardly needs an introduction. Recent popular and scholarly discov-
eries of her music as well as correspondences and writings on natural healing
have made her famous to the public at large. Her extraordinary achievements,
all the more astonishing considering the burden of being a woman in a medieval
monastic world, have made her something of an international cult figure.
My composition Musica Ignota draws inspiration from Hildegard’s music as well
as her lesser-known invented language system entitled Lingua Ignota (Latin for
“unknown language”). To write in this imaginary language, she used an alphabet
of 23 letters and created a glossary of over 1000 beautiful, unknown words, pre-
sumably intended as a universal language for mystical purposes. The opening
to the glossary in the Wiesbaden Riesencodex disarmingly states that Lingua
Ignota is “an unknown language brought forward by the simple human being
Hildegard (Ignota lingua per simplicem hominem Hildegardem prolata).”
Having grown up in the Rhineland myself, I have long been fascinated by Hilde-
gard von Bingen and it is my hope that the “unknown music” brought forth in my
composition Musica Ignota, serves to honor her life and work.
4 -Program Note by Ingrid Stölzel

A Movement for Rosa was commissioned by the Florida Bandmasters Associ-
ation honoring civil rights heroine Rosa Parks and was composed and orches-
trated over a three-month period: August-November, 1992. With a duration of
approximately 11 1/2 minutes, this ‘movement’ -- a quasi-tone poem -- contains
three contrasting sections. Section I evokes Rosa’s early years, from birth Feb.
1913 in Tuskegee, Alabama, through her marriage in 1932 to Raymond Parks in
Pine Level, Alabama. Section II portrays years of racial strife in Montgomery and
the quest for social equality. Section III is one of quiet strength and serenity. The
work’s final measures serve an ominous reminder of racism’s lingering presence
in modern American society.
On December 1, 1955, Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to give up her seat to
a white man on a segregated city bus in Montgomery, Ala. Mrs. Parks earned the
title “Mother to a Movement” for her act of personal courage, sparking the Civil
Rights movement of the 1950s. So significant and inspiring was her peaceful
act of defiance that the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., inscribed the following
words on the frontispiece of his book, Stride Toward Freedom, a copy of which
he gave to Mrs. Parks: “To Rosa Parks, whose creative witness was the great
force that led to the modern stride toward freedom.”
Throughout the history of our great nation, we have glorified (and rightly so)
various heroes, most frequently presidents, military figures, and athletes. But
we must not forget heroes who are perhaps less conspicuous but every bit as
significant. Rosa Parks, who worked as a tailor’s assistant in a men’s clothing
store, became secretary of the Montgomery NAACP and the impetus to a major
social movement.
America’s proud heritage and the accomplishments of its people have been
and continue to be darkened by racial discrimination. This blight on our country
takes many forms, whether subtle or more overt, as with cowardly acts of intimi-
dation and violence by various extremist hate groups. Mrs. Parks addresses this
continuing problem in her 1992 book entitled Rosa Parks: My Story. The final
three paragraphs of that book:
I look back now and realize that since that evening on the bus in Montgomery,
Alabama, we have made a lot of progress in some ways.
All those laws against segregation have been passed, and all that progress has
been made. But a whole lot of white people’s hearts have not been changed. Dr.
King used to talk about the fact that if a law was changed, it might not change
hearts but it would offer some protection. He was right. We now have some
protection, but there is still much racism and racial violence.

In recent years there has been a resurgence of reactionary attitudes. I am trou-
bled by the recent decisions of the Supreme Court that make it harder to prove
a pattern of racial discrimination in employment and by the fact that the national
government does not seem very interested in pursuing violations of civil rights.
What troubles me is that so many young people, including college students,
have come out for white supremacy and that there have been more and more in-
cidents of racism and racial violence on college campuses. It has not been wide-
spread, but still it is troublesome. It seems like we still have a long way to go.
Clearly, Rosa Parks met those challenges and responsibilities with great dignity
and courage. As Congressman John Conyers aptly said: “Rosa Parks moved civil
rights issues from the back of the bus to the front of America’s conscience.”

Warren Barker has combined the most memorable themes from Gershwin’s
great symphonic works into a dramatic concert work. It includes: An American in
Paris; Cuban Overture and, of course, Rhapsody in Blue.
