Sarita:
I have no idea but hope to attend the concert and find out, will report post-haste, promise. I assume that Presser is the publisher...haven't they done most of Schickele's stuff? Perhaps there's a websiute breakdown of the scoring there.

About Presser
Justin - I visited the Presser web site first. They don't seem to have anything more recent than 1996. I'm counting on you for the info.

Re: About Presser.for Sarah
Couldn't resist the Spanish honorific...guess we'll have to ask the soloist...anyone know where the world premiere took place, and with whom? The Tobias listing is for a NY premiere...

Re: About Presser.for Sarah
I heard the premiere a few months ago in Pasadena, CA, with the Pasadena Symphony. Paul Tobias played, with Jorge Mester conducting. Playing was great. The piece had some touching moments and some water-treading. I expect that the orchestration might be thinned a bit for the second performance, as the cello was covered in some places. (I don't remember the details, but there was a pretty full brass section.)
