(2011) Lost Vegas (by Grammy®-winning composer Michael Daugherty) 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 Torn down long ago, the cozy nightclubs - where the Rat Pack once performed edgy material - have been replaced by large arenas where commercialized family entertainment is now presented. Daugherty's composition for symphonic band 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
