Daniel Bukvich: Symphony #1 In Memoriam Dresden 1945
I. Prologue
II. Seeds in the Wind
III. Ave Maria
IV. Firestorm
Daniel Bukvich (born 1954) is an American composer and percussionist. He has been a professor of percussion and music theory at the Lionel Hampton School of Music at the University of Idaho since 1978.
This emotional, contemporary work written in 1978 has gained widespread acceptance in recent years. Written in remembrance of the firebombing of the German city of Dresden, Bukvich combines the most traditional techniques with the most contemporary, including representational notation (in lieu of musical measures, the introduction of various instruments into the score are denoted by a timeline).
