Bruce Polay (b. 1949) has served jointly as professor of music and chair of the music department at Knox College and music director/conductor of the Knox-Galesburg Symphony since 1983. He received the prestigious 2004 Illinois Conductor of the Year award from the Illinois Council of Orchestras, having achieved this esteemed recognition for an unprecedented second time. The Knox-Galesburg Symphony has also been twice recognized Illinois Orchestra of the Year during his tenure. Bruce’s recent appearances as guest conductor have included performances in Belarus, England, Italy, Mexico, Romania, Russian, Spain, Ukraine, and in the US, all resulting in requests for re-engagements, conducting orchestras such as the Belarussian State Philharmonic (Minsk), the State Orchestra of Mexico, the Orvieto Summer Festival Orchestra (Rome), the Chamber Orchestra of the Emporda (Spain), and the Bolshoi Theatre Chamber Orchestra (Moscow). Bruce’s recognition as a composer has been enhanced with awards from the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers in ASCAP’s Rudolf Nissim Composition Competition and ASCAP/Plus Awards received each year since 1993.======"Semi-Suite for Violin, Cello, and Piano" (2000) was commissioned by the Friends of Chamber Music, Quad Cities, Illinois/Iowa, and was given its premiere in 2000 by the Knox-Galesburg Symphony Trio. The title for the original three-movement work came out of a conversation with David and Carolyn Suda (violin and cello of the trio). David kiddingly mentioned that I should call the piece “semi-suite,” when I proposed that the piece would be written on the “lighter side of serious composition.” So with tongue still in cheek I decided to take David up on his quip.Hora lunga is taken from the Romanian hora lunga, an enigmatic gypsy-inspired style. The harmonies are derivative of Eastern European flavor, particularly reminiscent of Dohnanyi. The early violin cadenza serves as a transition from the dramatic and moody introduction (alla Shostakovich) to the hora lunga proper. Slow Dance combines neo-romantic harmonies with pop style. It is modeled structurally after the opera aria – in which the singing style is of textless, lyric quality. Chocolate Mess was composed a year later in Snowbird Lodge, Utah, while I served on the Board of Advisors for the Barlow Endowment for Music Composition. Its highly rhythmic and terse style recalls Martinů, a Slavic connection directed at David Suda’s ...
