William Bolcom - Curtis Curtis-Smith - Pieces from Collusions

Moonlight on Ice 

Sarabande Mortelle

Snippets (Some long some short)

James Giles, piano

Yeah, I've ordered it.  I love them, these performances are by James Giles wonderful.  I expect the CD sounds even better.

I believe this description of Collusions comes from the publisher, E. B. Marks.

This unique five-movement set was a collaboration between Bolcom and Curtis-Smith, both on the faculty at the University of Michigan. For a year, each composer would write ten measures before passing the piece back to the other, making these pieces true compositional collaborations. It was premiered by James Giles on November 15, 1998.
