Andrea Skowronek wrote
in the program: "Legend has it that the Arcadian nymph Syrinx,
fleeing from the god Pan, begged the Naiads to change her into reeds
growing on the river bank. Pan, thinking these reeds hid the nymph,
cut them down. Sighing over the reeds, Pan ound they gave forth a
musical sound, where upon he fashioned them into flutes. I grew up
hearing my father, flutists Felix Skowronek, playing "Syrinx." This
piece is dedicated in loving memory to him." |

From the program:
"Ira J. Mowitz's "Answering Machine Music," commissioned by the
American Music Center for use as on-hold music for their telephone
system, was the inspiration for this structured improvisation. The
dancers created choreographed phrases for this piece." |
