Miller Theatre Columbia University 2960 Broadway (at 116th St.) MC 1801 New York, NY 10027 Fax: 212-854-7740 Box Office: 212-854-7799 Note: Discounts for students and Columbia faculty/staff are available for all concerts (Box Office sales only, with valid ID). Click here for more details. Miller Theatre's 15th Anniversary Season opens with a zany thrill ride of a concert that mixes music from past Miller seasons with composers to be discovered this year. Conlon Nancarrow's player-piano rhythms beat at the heart of the program, which extends to Ligeti's fascination with ticking clocks and broken machines, the crazy-cat energy of John Adams and Benedict Mason, and the rock-and-roll heart of Michael Gordon. This whirling musical carnival will be the perfect showcase for Alarm Will Sound, whom The New York Times calls "dynamic."

55. Curious Assortment The Ping Pong Prelude was performed by pianist blair mcmillen at the AvianOrchestra’s Play Ball!!! concert in New York City in January 2004. http://shadowhillsmusic.com/CuriousAssortment.html

Curious Assortment David Rubinstein for piano 14 minutes composed 1998-2002 Cover art by the composer (The composer does not sleepwalk. Curious Assortment consists of five pieces: The pieces in this collection are a kind of program music, meant to represent the peculiarity of the subconscious world rather than reality. They may be performed individually. What does a volley of ping pong sound like on the piano? This is what I decided to find out, and the results of my research are heard in The Ping Pong Prelude . After the imitative opening measures, however, the game continues in a dreamlike state, while still making use of the initial musical motifs. Sorry, Wrong Cabaret was conceived as an imaginary dance number with multiple short themes, none of them predominating. The vaudevillean effect is purposely disjointed, and a person entering this cabaret realizes that he has arrived at the wrong place and time. February 29th Birthday Waltz was composed as a gift for an octogenarian friend, Judi P. Craven, who celebrated only some twenty-odd birthdays. It peeks into the mysterious plight (or blessing) of one who does not have a birthday every year. The date is spelled out musically, using the notes F,E,B and the second and ninth intervals.
