The Adagio of this composer’s piano concerto begins with a 46-bar introduction for winds and brass whose melody is mostly carried by a muted trumpet and an oboe. That concerto was written during this composer’s seclusion at the Chautauqua Institution, and it begins with timpani playing “F, C, low F, high F.” A “rhapsodic ballet” by this composer calls for a trumpet with “felt crown” to play a solo beginning (read slowly) “long F (pause) G, F, down to B-flat, D-flat, C, B-flat, G, long F,” which represents (*) homesickness. This composer featured the Charleston rhythm in his piano concerto, which was the first piece that he orchestrated himself. Walter Damrosch commissioned this composer’s Concerto in F and a tone poem in which he called for four taxi horns. For 10 points, name this composer of An American in Paris. ■END■
