{"value"=>"<p>This series, dating from the 1960s to 2003, contains forty-seven audio recordings, mostly performances and rehearsals of Turok's works. Some recordings feature works by other composers alongside Turok's. A 1974 interview with Turok and an episode of WQXR's <span class=\"title\">First Hearing</span> from the 1990s are included as well.</p> <p>The majority of recordings do not have exact dates. Estimated date ranges are provided in such cases.</p> <p>Notable recordings in this series include the 1976 premiere of <span class=\"title\">A Sousa Overture</span> performed by the Philadelphia Orchestra; <span class=\"title\">Canzone Concertante No. 5</span> performed by the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Wind Ensemble in 1990; and <span class=\"title\">Rhapsody for Band</span> performed by the Lawrence University Symphonic Band in 1995. Other recordings feature Turok compositions such as <span class=\"title\">Clarinet Trio</span>, <span class=\"title\">From Sholom Aleichem</span>, <span class=\"title\">Improvisations</span>, <span class=\"title\">Lyric Variations</span>, <span class=\"title\">Ragtime Caprice</span>, <span class=\"title\">Scene: Domestic</span>, <span class=\"title\">Threnody</span>, and <span class=\"title\">Tourist Music</span>.</p> <p>The <span class=\"title\">First Hearing</span> episode features Turok discussing composers Bohuslav Martinu and Benjamin Britten. Additionally, there are two recordings that highlight Turok in rehearsal with soloists, providing direction and discussing the piece at hand. His rehearsal with cellist Bonnie Hampton is of particular interest.</p> <p>Works by other composers often exist on recordings with Turok's works, usually as part of a full performance program. Several recordings contain only pieces by other composers. These include Christoph Willibald Gluck's <span class=\"title\">Orfeo ed Euridice</span>, Jacques Offenbach's <span class=\"title\">Tales of Hoffman</span>, and Tim Thompson's <span class=\"title\">A Song of Earth</span>. It is unclear if Turok was involved in these recordings that do not feature his work, or if he gathered them for reference.</p>"}
