The Nightfly

A concerto was actually not in my mind at this stage. We really need to focus on melodic/motivic development instead of all the other issues we will face writing the concerto. Writing for a solo instrument teaches a lot. It forces you to concentrate on melodic development since you don't have any other issues to worry about such as accompaniment and orchestration. I certainly don't want to force you into doing this but I strongly suggest we do a solo instrument. After doing that we will move on to chamber works and eventually to concerto.
