Description

Alice Changes, by Tarik O’Regan , is a short piece for solo Violin, composed for Thomas Gould. The work progresses through a series of increasingly intricate figurations,which sit on top of the same underlying chord progression found in Charlie Parker’s Blues for Alice (1951). A variation of the twelve-bar blues, this harmonic sequence goes by several names, such as: “Bird blues”, “Bird changes”,or “Alice changes” . Thomas Gould premiered Alice Changes at Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club in London on 30 March,2014.
