Program Note:
Richard Wilson writes: I composed CHARADES in 2014 for my colleague and friend of so many years, the brilliant pianist Todd Crow. In a Vassar College music department party over forty years ago Mr. Crow distinquished himself in a game of charades: thus the title. The four movements are Arabesque, Cantilena, Roulades, and Toccata. Todd Crow gave the premiere at Skinner Hall, Vassar College, on December 10, 2016.
