Gomen

Well it has been over two weeks since my last post, gomen.

So what have I been up to? Well other than a trip to Las Vegas with the family I have been working on:

The Wildcats

Something completely different, and I mean completely different for me. This piece popped into my head about two weeks ago and it has not allowed me to work on anything else. So it is now available for public ridicule here on SibeliusMusic in an attempt to exorcise it from my psychic.

I am sure that I have violated many conventions in this piece, and there maybe be yet hidden voice leading issues and unintended bi-tonality. I have spotted two typos so far in the uploaded score and the 1st Clarinet goes a bit too high and needs to be reigned in.

Insults, comments and constructive help, both public and private, are welcome.

The Wildcats

PS: There seems to be some balance issues with the scorch play back, but there is also a MP3 you can listen to.

Teaser

Well last Friday I began working on a completely new and completely different type of piece for me. Something I have never done, something I never even imagined I would try to write. What is it? Well that is the tease, you will have to wait to find out. But I will give you one hint: This new composition uses Cut-Time, a time signature that I have never used before.
