“The Wasteland”commissioned by The Pro Musica QuartetIn the aftermath of World War I, the imminent collapse of civilization seemed inevitable. The great poet, T.S. Elliot turned to ancient Grail Legends for insight and composed one of the greatest poems of the English Language, “The Wasteland”. Scholars have spent years arguing the subtle nuances of it’s exquisite prose, I responded to the vivid imagery and atmosphere that Elliot conjures from the page. At once distraught and beaten down, yet strangely optimistic at the same time, this work is sparse and still. Written with an excessively economic motivic palette, it explores a full range of emotions as it works its way from quiet despair to triumphant anger, with stops for exquisite beauty along the way.

ABOUT THE COMPOSER Unabashedly tonal and delightfully anachronistic, the music of American composer Scott Michal combines lyric, harmonic and rhythmic ingenuity with exceptional craftsmanship in a unique stylistic manner that remains true to the spirit of the great masters. Neo-classic in form and tonality, innovative and original in content, Scott’s music is always fun to listen to, and fun to perform. Rooted in his own experiences as a professional cellist and pianist, Scott is a performer’s composer. Playing cello in the Columbus Symphony for 13 seasons, and accompanying and conducting great musicians from around the world, Scott has been immersed in music-making nearly all of his life. The son and grandson of piano teachers, he has devoted much of his life to teaching, constantly seeking innovative ways to share his deep love of music with his students. His music is performed by orchestras and musicians throughout the world. Scott’s music is available from Hal Leonard, Willis Music, ALRY, Dramatic Publishing and his own company, Naragon Music Press. His website, scottmichal.com has streaming audio clips of many of his works, and information on purchasing or renting his music.
