Charm ingly packed with wit, grace, symbolism, and irony, Shulamit Ran’s THE FLIGHT OF THE BRAVE CHICKEN celebrates the life and work of a graphic artist and illustrator (who played clarinet), who lost her battle with cancer as a young adult. The six-minute duo begins as a dramatic dialog for bass clarinet and piccolo, gradually evolving to peaceful resolution for flute and clarinet. The work may be performed with projections of the original art panels that inspired the work.Brave Chicken was a character developed by Nina Frenkel, gifted illustrator, graphicartist, and beloved friend to many, who passed away at the age of 43 having lost adifficult battle with cancer. Her parents, Marcel and Anne Frenkel, approached mein May 2017 about composing a short work in Nina’s memory, suggesting that it bebased on four delightful panels that Nina had painted in 2014 before she knew of therecurrence of the disease.Titled “Brave Chicken Meets the Ogre,” “Brave Chicken Fights the Ogre,” “BraveChicken Flees to Safety,” and “Brave Chicken in the Healing Hut,” the four panelsdepict a progression from darkness to light. And while my composition does notattempt to follow the four panels literally, I did aim to create two distinctly differentmusical characters who are posed against one another with one clearly perceived asdominant and threatening, and trace the evolving change in the balance of power,and with it the journey from darkness to light.Inspired by the knowledge that Nina herself greatly enjoyed playing the clarinet, Idecided to pair bass clarinet with piccolo, eventually switching the piccolo over toflute, with clarinet appearing in time for the work’s peaceful conclusion. Though I hadnever met Nina, I felt honored to compose this work in her memory.

This is an extended concert work (55 minutes) for solo piano. The work is set in a very long and freely-expressed rondo form. Throughout the duration of the piece there are four of five main ideas that are continually repeated and developed. There is much use of fast, cascading passages and tone clusters, but these are firmly contrasted with soft melody passages. The great white cosmic light is expressed by continual tremolando passages which reach their culmination at the very end of this long and expansive work.

Vict or Johnson's signature ability to expertly pair beautiful choral melodies and accompaniments is on full display in this anthem of assurance and reflection that highlights the beauty of the words by Fanny Crosby. There is healing at the fountain, come, behold the crimson tide, flowing down from Calvary's mountain, where the Prince of Glory died..
