Musician's or Publisher's Notes

Siegmeister's highly charged Flute Concerto, with its sultry blues moods and offbeat themes, receives its first digital recording -- and its first new recording in three decades. The American Institute of Arts and Letters described Siegmeister's body of work as "highly charged, admirably crafted, and deeply rooted in the life of the people as well as in his profound emotional experience."

Mary Stolper brings a signature vibrancy and technical flair to this repertoire. Ms. Stolper tours and performs with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, and is principal flute of Concertante di Chicago and the Chicago Sinfonietta.
