Masters Music DVD Series Completed in the summer of 1991, Postcard was commissioned by H Robert Reynolds in memory of his mother, Ethel Virginia Curry. He requested that the composition not be an elegy commemorating her death, but a short energetic piece celebrating her life. Frank Ticheli joined the USC composition faculty in 1991. His music has been described as “brilliantly effective, deeply felt, with impressive flair and striking instrumental colors…” The Philadelphia Orchestra, Atlanta Symphony, Detroit Symphony and the Dallas Symphony have performed Ticheli’s works. He received his doctoral and masters degrees in composition from the University of Michigan. H. Robert Reynolds is the principal conductor of the USC Thornton Wind Ensemble. For 26 years he served as Director of Bands at the University of Michigan, and conductor of the Detroit Chamber Winds and Strings.

Sir Dirk Brossé, music director at the Philadelphia Chamber Orchestra, is a versatile composer of orchestral and symphonic repertoire, chamber music, film & musical. His compositions are performed worldwide by the most prominent orchestras and soloists. About the new series of 10 Musical Postcards for wind band, Dirk says the following: Composing is a commitment; it is my life’s mission. For me composing means creating a vacuum around myself and allowing myself to be submerged by impressions. It is a continual struggle between fantasy and reality, between dream and reality. Out of chaos of sounds and emotions I try to order my thoughts by juggling shreds of melodies, original chords, striking sound colours and alternating rhythms. Melody, harmony, rhythm and sound colours are finally balanced to generate a harmonious universe. This series of ten ‘Musical Postcards’ are a reflection of my travels, thoughts, discoveries and musical career so far, which has brought me around the globe. I look forward to you joining me on this voyage of discovery….
