Ringing in the 20's - Madison Area Concert Handbells
With two decades behind us, MACH is embarking on an exciting journey into a new era, our twenties. For that reason, it seemed only appropriate to program a concert of music from the 20s! We hope youll join us this May for some familiar melodies, works youve never heard before, and even a world premiere!
Our program opens with familiar tunes from the American 1920s, including Kevin McChesneys mammoth arrangement of Gershwins Rhapsody in Blue, as well as Alexanders Ragtime Band,
and Singin in the Rain. We also wanted to explore a more creative interpretation of our concerts theme, music from the 20s, by programming music by young composers in their twenties. To this end, we are excited to present the world premiere of UW Madison student and former MACH ringer John Rottier's original composition entitled Portcullis. This side of the program also contains a 2005 work by a 22-year old Matthew Prins, who has since reached handbell stardom, and a small ensemble piece by a 20-something composer who made quite the mark on the Viennese music scene, Wolfgang
Amadeus Mozart.
