This post is gonna be a little short, just wanted to say a couple things real quick:
The performance of Haiku was last night, and it went pretty well. The musicians were Sophia Musleh on flute, Julian Rieder on percussion, and Daniel McCarthy on viola.
I'm working on a piece for full orchestra. So far I have about 2 minutes written in short score, which I'll orchestrate next week. I'm gonna work today and tomorrow to see if I can get a little more than 2 minutes... pretty sure I won't be reaching the goal of 8, though, by Monday.
I'm also working on other movements to accompany Haiku. I'll eventually have a handful of chamber pieces based on poetry forms. I'm probably going to include sonnet, free verse, and limerick. Nothing's set in stone yet, though- just ideas.
Also, big news: Magnum Opus is getting a second performance! It will be at the DC Fringe festival this summer. It's going to be produced by Opera Alterna. I'm so excited about this! Once I know the exact venue and dates I'll put them on here.
