Rissolty-Rossolty (1992)
Arrangement of Ruth Crawford Seeger for two pianos
Transcribed 1992
Unpublished
Duration: 3 minutes
Première
First performance: February 1992; 'The Complete Ruth Crawford' in the ICA London; Sally Rose and Michael Blake pianos
Programme note
The almost 'Complete Ruth Crawford' given by London New Music in four concerts in February-March 1992, in the ICA London, presented all her mature solo instrumental, vocal and chamber music, but omitted her one choral work for logistical reasons. Rissolty-Rossolty for chamber orchestra could be included after Mike Seeger gave me the go-ahead to make a two-piano transcription.
