The Butterfly that Stamped is a story from the anthology Just So Stories, written by Rudyard Kipling for his daughter who suffered constant bad health. The book inspired composer Maxim Aulio to compose this work which is in a French impressionistic style. The piece opens with a beautiful palace surrounded by the impressive gardens of King Solomon. It is in these gardens that the baritone saxophone makes its appearance representing King Solomon himself, the flute representing the butterfly couple, the clarinet representing Queen Balkis and the trumpet the djin.The Butterfly that Stamped - Der Schmetterling, der aufstampfte“ - ist eine von zwölf Erzählungen aus dem Band Just So Stories, den Rudyard Kipling, der berühmte Autor des Dschungelbuchs, Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts für seine kranke Tochter schrieb. Der französische Komponist Maxime Aulio ließ sich von dieser bezaubernden Geschichte zu einer Komposition im Stil des französischen Impressionismus inspirieren. Vor der wundervoll orchestrierten musikalischen Kulisse des Palastes und der Gärten König Salomons treten das Baritonsaxophon als König Salomon, die Flöten als Schmetterlingspärchen, eine Klarinette als Königin Balkis und die Trompeten als Dschinnsauf. Vorhang auf! Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) est l’un des plus célèbres écrivains de langue anglaise. Né Bombay en Inde, ce journaliste, poète et romancier reçoit le prix Nobel de littérature en 1907. On lui doit notamment les célèbres ouvrages Le Livre de la Jungle (1894), Histoires comme ça (1902) et Kim (1901), entre autres. Rudyard Kipling a sillonné le monde, glanant de-ci de-l des mots et des merveilles raconter aux petits et aux grands. Aujourd’hui encore ses Histoires comme ça enchantent par leur drôlerie et leur poésie ; de délicieux récits d’animaux entre l’Inde et l’Afrique initialement écrits pour sa fille, Joséphine, qui mourut en 1899 des suites d’unegrippe.Le Papillon qui tapait du pied est un des douze contes du recueil Histoires comme ça. Maxime Aulio s’en est inspiré pour créer une œuvre qui s’inscrit dans la tradition de l’impressionnisme musical français. Le saxophone baryton solo incarne le Roi Salomon, fils de David ; les fl tes jouent le couple de papillons ; une clarinette est la Reine Balkis - la Sage Balkis de Saba - tandis que les trompettes et les cornets représentent les Djinns. Les personnages évoluent dans un décor orchestral merveilleux l’image des jardins et du palais du Roi Salomon. / The Butterfly That Stamped (Le Papillon qui tapait du pied) est une œuvre de commande pour la Fédération Musicale d’Auvergne (France) avec le soutien du Conseil Régional d’Auvergne, l’occasion du 10e anniversaire de l’Orchestre Régional d’Harmonie École.

SONATA CHO-CHO-SAN(Based on themes from Puccini’s Madama Butterfly)In the spirit of the great 19th-century opera fantasies for woodwinds, Michael Webster has created a concert trio on the many great arias from Puccini's Madama Butterfly. However, as its name implies, Sonata Cho-Cho-San is not the typical virtuosic operatic potpourri. Rather, it follows the plot, resembling a sonata mirroring Puccini's use of recurring and developing themes. Webster makes the most of the winds as versatile performers - equally suited to deliver Puccini's beautiful vocal writing, and to ornament and embroider the poignant themes in symphonic style. For advanced performers._______________________________________Text from the scanned back cover:Born in 1944, Michael Webster made his New York recital debutat Town Hall in 1968 with his eminent father, Beveridge Webster, as pianist.
