METROPOLIS SYMPHONY: I. Lex

for Orchestra Full Score
(1991) Since its premiere by the Baltimore Symphony in 1994 at Carnegie Hall, the GRAMMY®-winning Metropolis Symphony has entered the orchestral repertoire and been performed by orchestras all over the world. Metropolis Symphony is a five-movement musical response to the world of Superman, and Lex derives its title from one of Superman’s most vexing foes, the super-villain Lex Luthor. Marked Diabolical in the score, this movement features a virtuoso violin soloist (Lex) who plays a fiendishly difficult fast triplet motive in perpetual motion, pursued by the orchestration and a percussion section that includes four referee whistles placed quadraphonically on stage. Duration – ca. 10:00
