At last, the epic song for Soprano, Women’s Chorus, Soprano Recorder, English Horn, Piano, and String Orchestra is COMPLETE! And joins the ranks of the four new pieces I’ve completed this year alone, interestingly enough…. A little history: This work was actually first written approximately back in 2002 or 2004 …
Hooray! Got more done on “Of Roses and Lilies” today!!
I worked out the (typically complicated) chord structure/progressions and the finished piano part for the middle “bridge-like” section (that comes next after where the present demo recording ends)…. Thus, with the framework now finished, I can finish orchestrating that section next… Then that means, I’m at least 2/3rds of the way done with the piece!!!!
It’s taking on a BEAUTIFUL shape!! I can’t wait to share it when I’m done!!!!
I’m SO delighted about the progress and magical unfolding of my latest “little” work, Of Roses and Lilies for Soprano, Women’s Chorus, Soprano Recorder, English Horn, and String Orchestra! I was really eager to share what I’ve got done so far, so enjoy this itty bitty sneak peak (below), as well …
Had a really productive evening; got the creative juices flowing again (now that we’re all finally settled into our new place and everything)!
I started organizing and solidifying my work toward finishing an old score of mine with lots of potential: “Of Roses and Lilies” … It’s been given a new breath of fresh air tonight, with a re-conceptualization of its forces: soprano solo, with SSA chorus, piano, string orchestra, english horn, and soprano recorder!!! It’ll be epic and sweet! Can’t wait to see it unfold at last! 🙂
