Bassoon Piece Update

Posted on May 15, 2009 at 6:31am 0 Comments 0 Likes

My piece for bassoon, "Departure, 10:49pm", was performed to a warm reception on Wednesday night. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to be there - I have bronchitis! The Marketing Director of the ACO told me that people really loved the piece, which I'm happy about :) And there's a recording coming my way, which I'll put up as soon as I get it.

I'm trying to write/finish two pieces in less than a month. Oh joy :)

One of them is bassoon solo, 3 minutes or less, for the "Compose Yourself" workshop being held by the American Composers Orchestra. I have a cool idea at least - my observations at Penn Station, taking the late train home - just need it to be interesting. I'm not good at solo pieces because I don't think that that horizontally. I need to be creative! Due: May 1.

The second one is a choral… Continue
