LONGER????

the first three movements is around 15 minutes, and there are still two movements to go! so in all it will be around 25 minutes. Long enough for me!


No, I generally compose directly to full-score. Sometimes I'll sketch some things down in a really condensed score format (I did this for the adagio of my 1st symphony), but not in this particular case.

The Abbotsford Symphony Orchestra in BC are interested, but they're not quite large enough at their full complement to handle this score. However, the conductor examining this score DID end up commissioning a new work from me He seems to have become quite a fan of my music.

In musical criticism, when issues of craft and technical consideration are set aside, what remains is more subjective. However, until technical issues are dealt with, the subjective portion bears considerably less weight.
