Programme Note

A Big Boston Birthday party for Betsy (80th birthday) and the BMOP* (10th anniversary) !
This is what I would like people to imagine as they listen to this rather unconventional set of variations on the well known birthday tune, with everyone joining in and out as often happens in such festivities.

*Boston Modern orchestra project
