(2011)

Lost Vegas (by Grammy®-winning composer MichaelDaugherty) was commissioned by the University of Michigan Symphony Band and the University of Miami Wind Ensemble. It is a swinging tribute to an earlier epoch when legendary entertainers like Elvis Presley, Peggy Lee, Esquivel, Bobby Darin, Stan Kenton, and Frank Sinatra's “Rat Pack” performed in the intimate, swanky showrooms of the Sands, Tropicana, and Flamingo hotels in Las Vegas, Nevada. Torn down long ago, the cozy nightclubs – where the Rat Pack once performed edgy material – have been replaced by large arenas where commercialized familyentertainment is now presented. Daugherty's composition for symphonic b and is a trip down Memory Lane to an adventurous and vibrant Vegas that once was – and returns, if only for a moment, in Lost Vegas. Duration - ca. 14:00
