Alchemy is usually defined as the Medieval search for the means of transmuting base metals, such as lead into gold and silver. The alchemist hoped to find the mysterious combination of words or elements to attain the goal. Our scene begins with a dramatic invocation to the spirits of the metals, followed by a chant to empower the energy necessary for the change. A procession of the alchemist's apprentices is heard as they add their presence to the effort and a final surge as the transformation is realized. Or is it? Careful execution of the dynamic variations within the work is essential to realize the desired effect. A metal plate can be substituted for the break drum. The tap on stands instruction in mm. 46 - 52 should be performed with a metallic beater on a metal stand. Experiment with mechanical pencils, small screwdrivers, portions of coat hangers, etc. Additional metallic percussion instruments could be added to enhance the effect or in place of the music stands. Volume is not as important as timbre.Alchemy is usually defined as the Medieval search for the means of transmuting base metals, such as lead into gold and silver.

Composed at the height of the pandemic, this piece speaks to one of the highest functions of art - to transmute sorrow into something useful and beautiful. Yeats is a famous poet whose words have many meanings. The poem is weaved into three sections and Milne follows that by constructing his motet into three verses. His melody is as haunting and thoughtful as the poet's lyrics. Furthermore, he keeps the vocal lines free of divisi yet full of suspensions and resolutions that entice the listener. A fine concert piece for high school and college choirs.

These chamber compositions of Anthony Iannaccone (born 1943) are refined, musicianly, and intellectually honest. Rituals, for violin and piano, is an extended composition skillfully fashioned and adroit in its adaptation of characteristic 'gestures' of the virtuoso recital piece. In Iannaccone's hands these 'gestures' are transmuted into something personal, while retaining, for the listeners' sake, the general shape of familiar territory. The blend of old and new, alternating between broadly lyrical and dramatic, adds up to a satisfying musical experience. --From the American Record Guide.

Jozef (Jef) Schampaert's 1952 Notturno e Danza (Nocturne and Danse) for flute and piano, written as a concours piece for the Royal Conservatoire Antwerp in Belgium, is a bit of a curious beast. While the rest of the Belgian school was experimenting with a return to lush romanticism (Alpaerts, Maes, and the musical progeny of Benoit), or beginning to prod the tonal bounds of listenable 12-tone and serialism (Constant and Verbesselt), Schampaert took towards a different sound: that of the Impressionists, transmuted through his distinctly Flemish touch. The Nocturne and Danse is no exception. The core of the Nocturne is a relatively straightforward melody, but it's quickly pulled apart into Debussyian fragments and melodic cells - a rhapsody in miniature, with touches of Ibert's stranger runs and figures through. The Danse retains a clearer sense of melody, but one that's even closer to Debussy and Ravel - grace notes and intertwined, changing runs are integral melodic material, by turns dark then playful. A small cadenza again touches on a sense of Ibert before the piece is brought to a quiet close.
