This week I interviewed Nolan Stolz about his upcoming concert, which features works composed simultaneously in a 60-minute time span. The concert is being sponsored by New Music Hartford, and is a benefit for the South Park Inn.

Thanks for doing this interview! My piece, “Passacaglia” for flute and cello will be premiered on Sunday in Hartford, and my only regret is that I can’t be there. The one-hour project was a great experience. I have to disagree with Nolan’s statement about not being able to pull out all the composer’s tricks, though. I personally used every trick I could think of to keep the notes flowing, starting by choosing a form, the passacaglia, that allowed me simply to finish when time was up–for me a 2:40pm Central Time… then 20 mintues to edit and get the piece emailed off. Wow! Simply a stunning experience.
I agree that it was an amazing experience. I hope that Nolan organizes another similar concert next year!
