The Silver Whistle

for narrator and orchestra

1980

18 minutes

Text by Jay Williams

Composer notes: A professional ballet company and I were planning a ballet based on Jay Williams’ fairy-tale The Silver Whistle. Unfortunately, the ballet company went bankrupt. When this happened I used my sketches to create a work for narrator and orchestra.
