Three Pieces for Blues Band and Symphony Orchestra is an avant-garde musical composition written by William Russo in 1968.

This piece was recorded by the San Francisco Symphony, again conducted by Seiji Ozawa, with Corky Siegel playing harmonica and electric piano.

[6] In 2002, Three Pieces for Blues Band and Symphony Orchestra was released on CD, combined with Street Music and An American in Paris.

And if you love the sound of a well-played blues harmonica, just wait until you hear what Corky Siegel can achieve on that versatile instrument.

Collaborations between the high brow and the low down have always been dicey... but this one will definitely leave [you] on one side of the debate or the other..."[8] Side one: Three Pieces for Blues Band and Symphony Orchestra (William Russo) with the Siegel–Schwall Band; Stuart Canin – solo violin on "2nd Part" Side two: Symphonic Dances from West Side Story (Leonard Bernstein) Street Music: A Blues Concerto (William Russo) with Corky Siegel Three Pieces for Blues Band and Symphony Orchestra (William Russo) with the Siegel–Schwall Band; Stuart Canin – solo violin on "2nd Part" An American in Paris (George Gershwin)
