Theme and Variations / Etude for solo piano based upon “Caravan.” A Clockwork Caravan

This is a set of theme and variations based upon the Duke Ellington / Juan Tizol jazz standard “Caravan,” performed by Yin Hao. At the time he performed this he was an exchange piano / composition student alongside me at UMKC. He didn’t know until the day before this performance that the theme was a jazz standard.

Here’s a tip - never use a jazz standard as a theme. Both Alfred Music AND Mills music wanted to bilk me for $200 to each one of them just to allow performances of this piece, and, I had to put on the music that my piece was an arrangement of “Caravan.” This is no more an arrangement than Rachmaninov’s variations of a theme by Paganini is simply an arrangement of that classic violin solo.

Performances of this will resume in 2032 when Caravan goes in the public domain, and I intend on releasing this score for free at that time as well.

In this piece, each variation is intended to musically illustrate a scene, character, item or incident in either the book or movie “A Clockwork Orange,” hence the title.

Does This Mean The Story Could Take Place Up To 2022?

The police hats clearly say "E.R" meaning "Elizabeth Regina" referring to Queen Elizabeth II ruling. Since she died in 2022, does that mean the story could take place up until then?

Thoughts?
