The work is a colorful homage to Gene Roddenberry's interstellar universe as depicted in the classic American television series \u003ci\u003eStar Trek\u003c\/i\u003e (1966-69). The title refers to the fiery planet Vulcan, home world of half-human, half-Vulcan Mr. Spock. As the rational-minded science officer aboard the starship Enterprise (commanded by the hot-blooded Captain James T. Kirk), Mr. Spock grapples with the “fascinating” predicament of making decisions predicated on human emotion versus Vulcan logic. Daugherty has composed stirring, yet highly structured music that alludes to the Vulcan “Pon Farr” ritual, Vulcan telepathic mind-melds, and the volcanic planet itself.

The concerto, composed in memory of his father, Willis Daugherty (1929-2011), is a musical reflection on family trips during Michael's childhood to the Mississippi River near McGregor, Iowa. In July and October 2012, Daugherty returned to the Mississippi River to make two road trips along the “Great River Road” from McGregor to Hannibal, Missouri to collect musical ideas. The result is one of the composer's most poignant and powerful musical works to date.  In this 22-minute tuba concerto, Daugherty has created a unique sound world that brilliantly captures and reflects the “sound and the fury” of the Mississippi River. The tuba soloist plays soulful melodies, jarring rhythms, prayerful chants and a New Orleans “second line” that propels the concerto to a virtuosic conclusion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cu\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe number of players doubling each part is at the conductor's discretion, but should be in keeping with a balanced sound.

The 70-year-old sailed across the Atlantic Ocean to the island of Manhattan, where he cast his magic spell upon all who heard him conduct. Under his baton the NBC Symphony was heard by millions of listeners, and through his live radio broadcasts and recordings, “Maestro Toscanini” became a household name in America. \u003ci\u003eLife\u003c\/i\u003e magazine reported, “The world knows Toscanini as a great conductor with a fearful temper, an unfailing memory, and the power to lash orchestras into frenzies of fine playing.” In \u003ci\u003eOn the Air\u003c\/i\u003e, Michael Daugherty has composed exciting music that captures Toscanini's tempestuous temperament, his musical intensity, and the frenzied tempos of his legendary performances.

In 1936, Toscanini was forced into exile at the height of his career for his refusal to become part of Mussolini's Fascist regime. The 70-year-old sailed across the Atlantic Ocean to the island of Manhattan, where he cast his magic spell upon all who heard him conduct. Under his baton the NBC Symphony was heard by millions of listeners, and through his live radio broadcasts and recordings, “Maestro Toscanini” became a household name in America. \u003ci\u003eLife\u003c\/i\u003e magazine reported, “The world knows Toscanini as a great conductor with a fearful temper, an unfailing memory, and the power to lash orchestras into frenzies of fine playing.” In \u003ci\u003eOn the Air\u003c\/i\u003e, Michael Daugherty has composed exciting music that captures Toscanini's tempestuous temperament, his musical intensity, and the frenzied tempos of his legendary performances.
