“Oh, the OF It All!” – A New Mini-Ballet by Composer Mary Bichner and Librettist John J King

ORCHESTRA VIDEO WITH SCORE AUDIO + TIMED LIBRETTO TEXT

Project Information

“Oh, the OF It All!” is a new, as-yet-unpremiered “mini” orchestral ballet work by composer Mary Bichner and librettist John J King, celebrating American illustrator Edward Gorey’s fondness for the New York City Ballet and its legendary choreographer, George Balanchine.

The work is arranged for a traditional mid-sized ballet orchestra consisting of: 2 flutes (flute + flute/piccolo), 2 oboes (oboe + oboe/English horn), 2 clarinets (clarinet + bass clarinet), 2 bassoons (bassoon + bassoon/contrabassoon), 4 horns, 2 trumpets, 3 trombones (2 tenor + 1 bass), tuba, timpani, percussion (snare drum, triangle, gong), piano, celesta, harp, and string orchestra. A piano reduction of “Oh, the OF It All!” can be made available upon request.

With a duration of approximately nine minutes, “Oh, the OF It All!” would make an excellent addition to any future mixed repertoire performance.
