First Glimpse...

So this past Friday I conducted the last ensemble rehearsal of "Krljavestica!" until March 28. We managed to wrangle a recording engineer and made an excellent recording which I will use as a preparatory aide for the choir (though we will be rehearsing totally a cappella). Check out these few snippets of the orchestra... I can't wait to hear it with the addition of the choir! Remember, this is just a rehearsal (our third and best so far) so be kind!

Dude, I'm digging this. I like where you're going with the orchestration. And, this piece makes sense to me.

While I was listening to the third piece, Danny Elfman called and he want's his composer's quill back.

Haha... thanks for the compliment, with the addition of the choir yet another dimension of form will be added to the work, I am also very excited to see how it shapes up. Oh and about Danny Elfman, since he doesn't write his own music anyway, I think I'll keep the quill.

It's an honorary quill.

Honorary indeed, though I'm not sure how much "honor" there is in success by mediocrity. Ah well, such is life.
