His many strings often blossom into a sumptuous harmony highlighted by soloing flutes. He is best known for his brilliant and unparalleled arrangements of Brazillian music on a series of Antonio Carlos Jobim albums nearly the polar opposite of his traditional European classical music training. Ogerman also arranged Jobim's compositions on the acclaimed 1967 album "Francis Albert Sinatra and Antonio Carlos Jobim". Many lament that Sinatra failed to use Ogerman again (while searching for arrangers for the rest of his career) when one hears his outstanding arrangements behind Sinatra singing the American popular song classics "I Concentrate on You" and "Baubles, Bangles and Beads". <P> In the 1950's, Ogerman worked in Germany as an arranger-pianist with Kurt Edelhagen and with Max Greger. In 1959, he moved to New York City to begin an arranging career as light classical music interest started to rapidly decline. Despite being immediately saddled with lesser arranging assignments in a fast-changing American music business, he firmly established himself in the recording studios with his versatile skills such that his work is still heard in commercials, elevators and recordings of all types. In 1963 he joined Creed Taylor's Verve/MGM Records, working on recordings by Jobim, Bill Evans, Wes Montgomery, Kai Winding and Cal Tjader. Taylor sold Verve Records and brought Ogerman over to arrange Jobim's Wave on his new CTI label. Ogerman later worked on albums by Oscar Peterson, Nelson Riddle (his favorite orchestrator) and others at the German MPS label. His other collaborations include work with Benny Goodman, Joao Gilberto, Astrud Gilberto, Joao Donato, Betty Carter, Leslie Gore and Michael Franks. Ogerman arranged best selling albums for Connie Francis and The Drifters. He has written jazz charts for Stan Getz, Freddie Hubbard, and Stanley Turrentine, among others. He has composed for many German films as well. He greatly regrets missing Glenn Gould's request to play on the arrangements he did for Barbara Streisand's "Classical Barbra" album. <P> In 1976, Jobim gave Ogerman the back side of his "Urubu" LP to exclusively feature his strings while Bill Evans similarly allowed Ogerman great latitude on his albums. Ogerman's piano-playing, which included early work with Chet Baker, can be heard to great affect on Jobim's best album "Terra Brasilis" (1980), featuring his masterful reworking of his arrangements from Jobim's 1960's American albums, highlighted by "Double Rainbow". <P> After many Grammy nominations over the years, Ogerman won the 1979 Grammy for Best Arrangement on an Instrumental Recording - George Benson's "Soulful Strut" Living Inside Your Love. He also solidified the jazz guitarist's pop vocal career with his arrangments on Benson's hugely selling album "Breezin'". George Benson's producer Tommy LiPuma the then helped him take highlights from his ballet `Some Times' to create his song-suite album `Gate Of Dreams' featuring his own orchestra, George Benson, David Sanborn, Michael Brecker and others. LiPuma later also produced Ogerman's excellent album "Cityscape". After producing the Benson and Ogerman albums for Warner Brothers, LiPuma took Ogerman to Dave Grusin's GRP label to produce the 1991 album "Claus Ogerman featuring Michael Brecker". <P> Unlike many arrangers who became better known when touring and appearing on television with big-name singers, Ogerman's intricate, large orchestra arrangements could usually only be afforded in the recording studio. Until the 1970's, Ogerman's large-scale orchestrations were almost always reduced to backing other artists of widely-varying talents and types of music at a time when only hit-composing arrangers (with more marketing-friendly names) could cost-effectively record their own albums in a country lacking subsidized light music orchestras and productions. Ogerman even hinted that the vast majority of his 1960's and 1970's work was quite unsatisfying. <P> Since the 1970's, Claus has devoted himself almost exclusively to serious compositions. His commissions and projects include a ballet score for the American Ballet Theatre (Some Times), a work for jazz piano and orchestra (Symbiosis) for Bill Evans, a work for saxophone and orchestra (Cityscape, which includes Symphonic Dances) for Michael Brecker, a song cycle (Tagore-Lieder) after poems by Rabindranath Tagore that was recorded by Met soprano Judith Blegen and mezzo-soprano Brigitte Fassbaender, Concerto Lirico and Sarabande-Fantasie for violin and orchestra that was recorded by Aaron Rosand, 10 Songs for Chorus A-Capella After Poems by Georg Heym that was recorded by the Cologne Radio Chorus, a work for violin and orchestra (Preludio and Chant recorded by world-renowned violinist Gideon Kremer), and many more. <P> September 2001: After 20 years away from jazz and popular music, Diana Krall coaxes Claus to arrange and conduct the London Symphony Orchestra on her best-selling album "The Look of Love". Now enjoy seeing Claus conduct on Diana's DVD "Live in Paris".  Ogerman's major influences remain Max Reger and Alexander Scriabin. He steadfastly maintains that he is not primarily concerned with "modernism" - his goal is to evoke emotional response in the listener. <P><I>(Claus Ogerman Bio By Alan Watts)</I> <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=694> <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=43> </TABLE> <HR>  <TABLE BORDER=0 CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 LANG=en DIR=LTR WIDTH="612" COLS="3">   <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1 WIDTH=54><IMG SRC="../../../../DOCUME~1/COMPAQ~1/Desktop/EPSWEB~1/HtmlExp.gif" WIDTH=54 HEIGHT=1></TD> <TD COLSPAN=1 WIDTH=486><IMG SRC="../../../../DOCUME~1/COMPAQ~1/Desktop/EPSWEB~1/HtmlExp.gif" WIDTH=486 HEIGHT=1></TD> <TD COLSPAN=1 WIDTH=72><IMG SRC="../../../../DOCUME~1/COMPAQ~1/Desktop/EPSWEB~1/HtmlExp.gif" WIDTH=72 HEIGHT=1></TD> <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=64> <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1> <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=670 WIDTH=486 VALIGN="TOP"> <P ALIGN="CENTER"><B>Helios Music Corp.

This song, dedicated to Madame Marguerite Baugnies, dates from about 1865, at which time the composer was only about 20 years old. Although the influence of Gounod may possibly be noticed in it, it is an amazing performance for so young a musician. The dreamlike languor, the intense serenity of melody and harmony convey perfectly the intent of the poem: A sleeper awakening from a dream filled with images of unearthly beauty begs the night to restore her visions to her. <P> <P>Orchestration: Mezzo-Soprano _ 3,0,3,0 _ 0,0,0,0 _ Harp - Strings <P>Duration: 4 min.

It is among his earliest known works and is thought to have been written about 1878, or some 16 years before Debussy astonished the musical world with the <I>Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun</I>. <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> The poem by Paul Bourget is a simple but moving commentary on the impermanence of life and happiness. Debussy _ as he always did in his songs _ keeps voice and accompaniment on equal terms. His own literary bent made him treat his texts with great care, and he is regarded by some critics to have been sometimes too cautious in this respect. In <I>Beau Soir</I> an almost formless but highly expressive melodic line flows above a continuously arpeggiated accompaniment. The harmonies are simple, but an exotic, dreamlike effect is achieved by constant shifts into remote tonalities. It should be noted that he retards the pace of the words towards the end of the song by interpolating three bars of unsung music. This device greatly intensifies the sadness of the final line. <P> <P>Orchestration: Mezzo-Soprano _ 3,0,2,0 _ 0,0,0,0 _ Harp - Strings <P>Duration: 3 min.

Originally a work for orchestra with chorus <I>ad lib</I> singing an anonymous text, it has been rearranged here into a "vocalise", a song form in which the singer chants a wordless melody over the accompaniment. (Famous examples of this form are the <I>Vocalise</I> by Sergei Rachmaninov and the <I>Bachianas Brasileiras</I> No. 5 by Heitor Villa-Lobos.) The Fauré <I>Pavane</I> benefits greatly from this treatment. It is so striking and so natural that one might wonder why Fauré himself failed to think of arranging the piece just this way. The fact is that the composer himself admitted to difficulty in the arts of arrangement and orchestration, but he amply compensated for these technical weaknesses through his power to create melody and harmony that have a uniquely restrained, yet intense emotional expressiveness. In style, also, he was totally personal and original. Given only a few bars of music, the experienced listener can readily identify a work as being by Fauré. <P> <P>Orchestration: Mezzo-Soprano _ 3,1,3,0 _ 0,0,0,0 _ Harp - Strings <P>Duration: 6 min.

The historian for literature Kurt Pinthus called him "the strongest poetic talent since Georg Buechner". <P> Heym was the son of a military-attorney in Hirschberg (Silesia). He called his father a "sinister-patriarchal official of the Kaiserreich" and described his mother as a "sensitive woman, living along in her husbands shadow". <P> Heym wanted to become a writer. But at the request of his father he studied law. He noted: "My ability to absorb is at an end, my brain is again over-filled with poetic visions. <P>During his studies he wrote over 2000 poems, eight plays, novels, stories and diaries. <P>In 1911 he wrote down this dream: "I was standing at a big sea, which was covered with some sort of stone plates. It seemed to be frozen water. Suddenly I felt how these plates started to fluctuate under my feet" <P> One year after this dream, on January 16, 1912, Heym was ice skating on the river Havel in Berlin. Suddenly the thin cover of ice started to break. The police report of two days later reads: "The unfortunate victim screamed loudly and very long for help while clinging to the rim of ice, before he drowned." <P> <P>Duration: 44 min.

In fact it has the features of both titles, which do not contradict each other. <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> The Solo Violin opens the piece with a rhythmic pattern played in octaves and is being joint after two bars by woodwinds, horns and piano, supported by a pianissimo pedal of the celli. A dialog between the solo instrument and the multidivided string section takes place, all in a cheerful Hindemithian mood and in a not definitely specified key of a-minor. <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> The second movement begins also with the Solo Violin against the contrast of woodwinds and horns and the now ever apparent piano (Ogerman´s main instrument), The movement is a stimulative, stylized Tango, on a poetic journey to distant key signatures until it ends in nearly inaudible quietness. <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> The third movement is an elegant, melancholic Valse Lento, in which the composer makes unlimited, yet cautious use of the large orchestra. For a long period he remains on a single rhythmic but also tuneful accompanying figure. After an abrupt, cadence-like statement, which is a transfigured reprise of the movement's introduction, this episode again ends in tranquillity. <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> The final movement is characterised by its liveliness and begins with an expressive motif which first appears as a dialog between the violin and the woodwinds; the strings remain silent for some time, while the Solo Violin stays continuously active in a motorical succession of 8<SUP>th</SUP> note triplets above a rhythmic pattern which modulates chromatically through all twelve minor key signatures. Here the movement reflects faintly the principals of minimal music. Towards the end of this variety rich composition a new powerful motif of triplets is being introduced and with increasing tension the work reaches its fortissimo climax. <P> <P>Orchestration: Solo-Violin _ 3,3,3,3 _ 4,3,3,1 _ Harp - Piano - Strings <P>Duration: 29:00 min. <P>Discography: Aaron Rosand (Violin) & The National Philharmonic <P> Orchestra, London <P> Cond.: Claus Ogerman <P> Koch Classics CD No. 3-6452-2 <P><I>Order</I> #: 060041 (CO-507) - Score (107 pages) <P><I>Order</I> #: 060050 (CO-704) - Violin & Piano (54 pages) <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=461> <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=227> <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1> <TD COLSPAN=2 HEIGHT=14 WIDTH=504 VALIGN="TOP"> <P ALIGN="CENTER">15 <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=14> <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=35> </TABLE> <HR>  <TABLE BORDER=0 CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 LANG=en DIR=LTR WIDTH="612" COLS="4">   <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1 WIDTH=54><IMG SRC="../../../../DOCUME~1/COMPAQ~1/Desktop/EPSWEB~1/HtmlExp.gif" WIDTH=54 HEIGHT=1></TD> <TD COLSPAN=1 WIDTH=486><IMG SRC="../../../../DOCUME~1/COMPAQ~1/Desktop/EPSWEB~1/HtmlExp.gif" WIDTH=486 HEIGHT=1></TD> <TD COLSPAN=1 WIDTH=18><IMG SRC="../../../../DOCUME~1/COMPAQ~1/Desktop/EPSWEB~1/HtmlExp.gif" WIDTH=18 HEIGHT=1></TD> <TD COLSPAN=1 WIDTH=54><IMG SRC="../../../../DOCUME~1/COMPAQ~1/Desktop/EPSWEB~1/HtmlExp.gif" WIDTH=54 HEIGHT=1></TD> <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=44> <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1> <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=10 WIDTH=486 VALIGN="TOP"> <P><B><FONT COLOR="#3f3f3f">ORCHESTRAL (Violin w/ Orchestra)</FONT></B> <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=10> <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1> <TD COLSPAN=2 HEIGHT=679 WIDTH=504 VALIGN="TOP"> <P> <P><B><U>PRELUDIO AND CHANT</U></B> by Claus Ogerman (1979); for Violin & Orchestra <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">The impetuous opening bars of <I>Preludio and Chant for Violin and Orchestra</I> fade away in Ogerman´s typical multivoicings and chords in extreme distant registers. After a contemplative opening phrase of the Solo Violin the first part (Preludio) opens with a toccatalike, continuous 16<SUP>th</SUP> note motion for the strings in contrast to a hovering "vocal scene" for the solo instrument. A general caesura ends the flow of the motion and the opening bars of the piece reappear. The Solo Violin takes over softly, but now supported by woodwinds and horns. A slow transition introduces a calm "Chant", the second vocal scene. A brief development leads to energetic climaxes and poignant accents until at "più lento" the piece returns to its restfulness. Within the orchestral and harmonic texture the piano now takes an important part. The Coda of the composition consists of six long chords, orchestrated for strings alone, which serve as a pedal for six final violin phrases and in which the first violins create an upwardmoving wholetone scale. It is curious that in Ogerman´s sophisticated choice of chord progressions this scale cannot immediately be analysed by the listener as such. <P> <P>Orchestration: Solo-Violin _ 3,0,3,0 _ 4,3,0,1 - Piano - Strings <P>Duration: 16:30 min. <P>Discography: Gidon Kremer (Violin) & The London Symphony Orchestra, <P> Cond.: Claus Ogerman <P> EMI Classics CD 56392 & 5566482 <P> EMI-Electrola LP 067-64695 <P> Odeon LP 067-64695 <P> Mobile Fidelity CD 786 <P> <P> Aaron Rosand (Violin) & The London Symphony Orchestra, <P> Cond.: Claus Ogerman <P> Koch-Schwann CD 3-6452-2 <P> <P><I>Order</I> #: 060042 (CO-508) - Pocket Score (43 pages) <P><I>Order</I> #: 060051 (CO-705) - Violin & Piano (22 pages) <P> <P> <P> <P><B><U>SARABANDE-FANTASIE</U></B> by Claus Ogerman (1990); for Violin & Orchestra <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">The <I>Sarabande-Fantasie for Violin and Orchestra</I> was written in 1990. Its basic form is a Sarabande without neither the binding ¾ time nor the rhythmic form as propagated by Handel. After a sustained introduction, the solo instrument sets in with a widespun cantilena above the haunting legato voicings of the strings, whose richly changing harmonic structure leads to the composers characteristic tonality, which is not bound to functions and remains to be free of dissonance. The core of the <I>Fantasie</I> is being reached at the seldom used score marking "raccontando", an indication which is being used in the vocal field. From here on the soloist is invited to unfold his art in a technically and expressively taxing cadence-like "narrative", above (changing) pedals of the basses. Inspite of precise metric indications the soloist is given all the freedom to use his own imagination how to play the text of the score until finally a strict tempo is being reached again. After a brief, glistening transition ("poco animato") the composition returns to the mood and tempo of the first theme and ends in pianissimo silence. <P> <P>Orchestration: Solo-Violin _ 3,3,3,0 _ 4,0,0,1 - Piano - Strings <P>Duration: 12:30 min. <P>Discography: Aaron Rosand (Violin) & The National Philharmonic <P> Orchestra, London <P> Cond.: Claus Ogerman <P> Koch-Schwann Rec. 3-6452-2 G1 <P><I>Order</I> #: 060043 (CO-509) - Pocket Score (25 pages) <P><I>Order</I> #: 060052 (CO-706) - Violin & Piano (18 pages) <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=679> <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=7> <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1> <TD COLSPAN=2 HEIGHT=14 WIDTH=504 VALIGN="TOP"> <P ALIGN="CENTER">16 <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=14> <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=35> </TABLE> <HR>  <TABLE BORDER=0 CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 LANG=en DIR=LTR WIDTH="612" COLS="7">   <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1 WIDTH=54><IMG SRC="../../../../DOCUME~1/COMPAQ~1/Desktop/EPSWEB~1/HtmlExp.gif" WIDTH=54 HEIGHT=1></TD> <TD COLSPAN=1 WIDTH=0><IMG SRC="../../../../DOCUME~1/COMPAQ~1/Desktop/EPSWEB~1/HtmlExp.gif" WIDTH=0 HEIGHT=1></TD> <TD COLSPAN=1 WIDTH=17><IMG SRC="../../../../DOCUME~1/COMPAQ~1/Desktop/EPSWEB~1/HtmlExp.gif" WIDTH=17 HEIGHT=1></TD> <TD COLSPAN=1 WIDTH=232><IMG SRC="../../../../DOCUME~1/COMPAQ~1/Desktop/EPSWEB~1/HtmlExp.gif" WIDTH=232 HEIGHT=1></TD> <TD COLSPAN=1 WIDTH=231><IMG SRC="../../../../DOCUME~1/COMPAQ~1/Desktop/EPSWEB~1/HtmlExp.gif" WIDTH=231 HEIGHT=1></TD> <TD COLSPAN=1 WIDTH=22><IMG SRC="../../../../DOCUME~1/COMPAQ~1/Desktop/EPSWEB~1/HtmlExp.gif" WIDTH=22 HEIGHT=1></TD> <TD COLSPAN=1 WIDTH=53><IMG SRC="../../../../DOCUME~1/COMPAQ~1/Desktop/EPSWEB~1/HtmlExp.gif" WIDTH=53 HEIGHT=1></TD> <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=44> <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=3> <TD COLSPAN=2 HEIGHT=10 WIDTH=486 VALIGN="TOP"> <P ALIGN="RIGHT"><B><FONT COLOR="#3f3f3f">ORCHESTRAL (Scores / Pocket Scores)</FONT></B> <TD COLSPAN=1 HEIGHT=10> <TR VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="LEFT"> <TD COLSPAN=1> <TD COLSPAN=4 HEIGHT=441 WIDTH=504 VALIGN="TOP"> <P ALIGN="CENTER"> <P ALIGN="CENTER"><B>ORCHESTRAL (Scores & Pocket Scores) <P ALIGN="CENTER"> <P ALIGN="CENTER"> <P ALIGN="CENTER"> <P ALIGN="CENTER"><U>KONZERT FÛR ORCHESTER</U> </B>(1991) <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">Claus Ogerman completed his "Concerto for Orchestra" in 1991. It is scored for the so-called "Large Orchestra". <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> This Concerto joins a select company of 20<SUP>th</SUP> century works in this genre. That by Bartok (1943) is the best known of these, but Hindemith (1925), Kodaly (1939) and Tippett (1965) also produced compositions of this type. Ogerman employs here the traditional three movement concerto form. <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> There is a great distinction between technical virtuosity as the indispensable servant of the higher purpose of revealing art, and virtuosity exercised for nothing more than acrobatic showiness. Ogermann´s virtuosity is always of the former type. That is to say his compositional virtuosity is functionally related at all times to the requirements of his artistic purpose even on those occasions when its sheer power is such that the perceptive listener cannot fail to notice it. The same is true of Ogerman´s orchestration. Its luminous transparency commands the admiration and respect of all professional musicians as well as knowledgeable listeners who are attuned to this all-important aspect of the art of music. But this difficult branch of musical skill is never used by Ogerman for mere technical display. As is the case with all great orchestrators who are also outstanding composers, Ogerman´s orchestration is always conceived solely in terms of the most exact possible realization of the composer's musical thought. "Orchestration is creation" wrote Rimsky-Korsakov in his great treatise on the subject. By this he meant that the best orchestral music is such that the music and its orchestration form a dual unity. To restate the matter another way, the music is conceived directly in terms of the orchestral idiom. <P> <P>Orchestration: 3,3,3,3_4,3,3,1-Piano_2 Harps _ Percussion (3 players) - Strings <P>Duration: 46 min.

He had occasionally incorporated thematic material from the "Lyric Suite" into some compositions which he wrote between 1952 and 1990. In this regard, mention must be made of his compositions "Cityscape", "In the presence and absence of each other" (both 1982) and "Lyricosmos" (1990). <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> Most noteworthy is the brilliant orchestration of this early four-movement work. All movements share a most serene mood, especially the second movement, where extensive solos are given to the first flute and the solo violin. <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> "Motoric motion" appears only in a most subdued manner in movements I, III and IV, but always without excessive climaxes. A surprising and ingenious concept is the entrance of the hymnlike final ¾ theme of the work, which is preceded by an orchestral allegro. This A<SUP>b</SUP>-major theme (first introduced by three flutes in unison and then repeated by the string-choir) is the most fitting and touching apotheosis of this remarkable work. <P> <P>Orchestration: 3,3,3,0 _ 4,0,0,1 - Piano _ Harp - Strings <P>Duration: 30 min.

Its original title was "Time Present and Time Past", courtesy of T.S. Eliot. <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> With a deep bow to the art that inspired the piece, it has been retitled "Symphonic Dances", a designation used by other composers such as Rachmaninoff and Hindemith. The first movement (andante) opens in a tragic, melancholy mood. <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> Various themes, changing rhythms and climaxes do not change the dominant character of the placid mood. The second movement (molto tranquillo) is a blues-influenced section with deep, dark undertones. <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> A pulsating basso ostinato is incorporated here. The second half of this movement presents a joyful conversation between a small brass formation and timpani. A towering introduction leads into the last movement where the dynamics change abruptly _ from maestoso to giocoso to tranquillo. The finale is bright, danceable, appropriately designed for balletic movement. The orchestra rises to different decibels in a driving 6/8 tempo that resolves tenderly to a quiet, descending mood. <P> <P>Orchestration: 3,3,3,3 _ 4,3,3,1 _ Harp _ Piano/Cestesta _ Percussion (4 players) - Strings <P>Duration: 21 min.
