Revelation




This is a piece for MIDI Ensemble and Choir. The text is taken from Isaiah, Luke, and Revelation giving the prophecy of the savior to the world, then the promise of his second coming.

The recording is from the premiere on Saturday, Nov. 20, 2011. It was the last piece on the program. This is not the official house recording (which is forthcoming), just my own personal one from the very back of the hall, which is why it sounds a little deadened. I was playing keyboard 1 in the MIDI Ensemble with Rick Frost, the University Choir director, conducting.



Bravissimo. Very good work on this. I have to say, I quite enjoyed this. The overall sound is like a blend of Whitacre, Rutter, and Part. Yet, through the blend.. there was an original voice throughout. I love it. Good work, I hope to hear more like this. :wub:
Yes I liked too, there is also some late Orff there, well, eary, late, is the same..

Nice this one Justin.
It was too filmish for my taste. There were harmonic interesting moments, at times some modal nicities (there is a lydianlike flavoured suspention that sounds too filmish (Williams? iono), but there were more), but also much is heard before.
Bells are epic. But this pieces breaths the wish to sound epicish, and that is icky.

I really liked the whispering, but that is, also an element of a toolbox full of tricks. So mixed feelings here.

I loved the texts. Not sure though whether I find them fitting for an public piece like this. For me it is rather personal. But that might be my protestant inner-chamber mentality ;)
congrats with the performing!
Omg this is so awesome! It seems like it came out of a musical or a film. Very authentic, and the bells were great. I love your sopranos. Very powerful and expressive.

Like!
I'm not big on this kind of stuff, but these are the things I thought of as I listened...
I like the contrast between electronic and classical, and the general subltleness of the piece, and I've no idea what happened at 2:28...
The transformation from soft to loud could've maybe been better...

Keep working on it and I hope this helps!

...and I've no idea what happened at 2:28...


What's confusing?
