Part one of Gordon Getty's Plump Jack...does the composer proud... A Falstaff leitmotif, first set forth in a sinuous chromatic line for solo harpsichord, is later stretched out in the brass to encompass the fellow's full enormity. All told, there is genuine dramatic sensibility at work here... Indeed the shadow of Strauss lies across much of Plump Jack... If Strauss is the model, in clarity and economy Getty's music stands on its own.
