It is especially valuable because it brings together two of Cage's favorite pianists the legendary David Tudor and renowned new-music champion Stephen Drury. Here Tudor makes a rare appearance as piano soloist with Germany's acclaimed Ensemble Modern for the Concert for Piano and Orchestra. This is the last performance of David Tudor at the piano, recorded at 1992's Cage Festival in Frankfurt (which sadly became a memorial as Cage passed away shortly before the performances). The Concert for Piano and Orchestra is an ever-expanding galaxy of sonic possibilities with the principle of independence. With no master score; orchestral players may start anywhere in his or her part according to their independently derived timetable. The pianist swims in the same sort of musical aquarium as the orchestra, not only producing traditional sounds on the keyboard, but also playing inside the instrument, along with unspecified auxiliary noise sources. Cage's comment on the expansive and contradictory nature of this sound universe is telling: "The only thing I was being consistent to in this piece was that I did not need to be consistent."

He directed the world premiere of George Russell's "Time Line" for orchestra, chorus, jazz band and soloists in 1992. In 1988-89 he organized a year-long festival of the music of John Cage and, at the composer's request, played the premiere of Cage's "101" with the Boston Symphony Orchestra in April, 1989. In 1991 he commissioned new works for solo piano from John Cage and John Zorn with funding provided by Meet The Composer and performed the works in Paris and at the Walker Center in Minneapolis. In March 1995, he performed the world premiere of John Zorn's concerto "Piano Requia" with the Cologne Radio Orchestra and conductor Dennis Russell Davies.

A second tour in the autumn of 1988 took him to Pakistan, Hong Kong and Japan. He gave the first piano recitals ever heard in Julianehaab, Greenland, and Quetta, Pakistan.

Monday, 18 October 1999 `People United' performance brings down the house REVIEW Pianist Stephen Drury, assisted by Sons of Orpheus, performed yesterday's Piano and Friends recital at Leo Rich Theatre. By Ken Keuffel Jr. The Arizona Daily Star Nobody who attended yesterday's Piano and Friends recital will ever forget it. The superhuman pianist was Stephen Drury, a celebrated contemporary music interpreter who teaches at Boston's New England Conservatory. He conquered, from memory, a nearly unconquerable creation: American Frederic Rzewski's 36 variations on ``The People United Will Never Be Defeated,'' a song by Chilean Sergio Ortega. The now-exiled Ortega wrote ``People United'' in 1973, months before Gen. Agusto Pinochet's coup. Before Drury's performance, Tucson's Sons of Orpheus sang this moving leftist anthem in Spanish and with the zeal of revolutionaries. Grayson Hirst directed forcefully. Structurally, Rzewski's ``People United'' variations first quote the Ortega song. Six sets of variations follow, with some variations summarizing earlier material. The result is ``an aural image of `the people united' - individuals in all their diversity coming together bit by bit to form a union,'' said Drury.
