These priceless works were commissioned by a 1925 Bates graduate, Alice Swanson Esty (1904-2000), one of the notable patrons of the arts that the United States has ever produced. She is known to few by name, yet her commissioned works have become essential canon of the classical music repertoire. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alice Esty: The Legacy Effect will present an overview of the collection, featuring original manuscript repertoire found in the Muskie Archives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pre-concert lecture by Chris Schiff, Bates College Librarian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>PROGRAM<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Mostly about Love<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0(Songs for\u00a0Alice\u00a0Esty)\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Virgil Thomson (1896-1989)I.Love Song, II.Down at the Docks,\u00a0 III.Let\u2019s Take a Walk, IV.Prayer to St. Catherine<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Le Sable du Sablier<\/strong>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Claude Arrieu (1903-1990)I.
