Title: | Homage to Louisiana for Narrator and Chamber Orchestra |
Authors: | Constantinides, Dinos |
Keywords: | LRC150 |
Issue Date: | 1995 |
Abstract: | Homage to Louisiana for chamber orchestra was written to celebrate the purchase of Louisiana. The text of each transfer from France under Napoleon to the United States was housed in the Louisiana Governor’s office of Baton Rouge. The 150th anniversary was celebrated in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and the composer was asked to write a piece for this occasion. This work was initially meant to use the text of the transfer with a narrator, but the composer felt that it was better to portrait this event with music alone. The French and the USA anthems are used extensively in this work in many ways and transformations. |
