- Abstract

Michael Dominico as soloist with Lorin Hollander, pianist.
"A very clever and sophisticated work that is a far cry from the hoofing and its music of the older era. It is exactly what its name says it is, a four-movement, formal, jazz-influenced symphonic piece, in which the tap dancer has a solo role as virtuosic and important as the piano in a Mozart concerto. The tap rhythms are written out, and the soloist had cadenzas where he can improvise on his own."
Michael Dominico the soloist under Milton Katims's directon of the Morton Gould Tap Concerto which premiered 11/21/1952 with Danny Daniels as tap soloist.
