Henning's Headquarters

[TheGSMoeller]

Good luck this evening, Karl.

[Cato]

At the venue now. Concert starts in quarter of an hour.

We await the first reviews!   0:)

Any naysayers shall be soundly thrashed, trashed, and otherwise disposed of!

Has anyone heard from Karl?

I thought he would have an update for us about last night!   0:)

Maybe he was up late celebrating!   

[Karl Henning]

Thanks, all, for the kind vibes! The concert went splendidly. The quartet sang fabulously, and our Annabel was the closing number; she was a stunner, and made a strong impression on everyone.

And: I have an mp3!  I shall try to craft another "movie" for YouTube, so Watch This Space.

I have more to say, but I am charged to take a wee nap before taking the artists and their easels to the Arboretum.

Excellent, Karl!

As predicted here at GMG by all who saw the score or heard the synthesized version!  Great news!

This I can attest to, it's a marvelous achievement. Bravo, Karl.

[Karl Henning]

Thanks, gents!

At the Arboretum with my dear artists. As for myself... working on the last movement of the Organ Sonata.

Of course!  "Idleness is the devil's workshop!"    

[Karl Henning]

This movement might be just the right piecework for that workshop!

This movement might be just the right piecework for that workshop!

  For those who might not have been following the creation of Karl Henning's Organ Sonata, it carries the Latin translation of the Temptation in the Garden: "You will be like God, knowing Good and Evil."

The First Movement carries the first part of the sentence, the second is entitled Scientes Bonum, and the Third (in progress) is "...et Malum."

Fantastic! Congratulations, Karl. Looking forward to hearing the recording!!

Thanks, Daniel!

Separately:  Very close to the end of the Organ Sonata

Found a typo: the F-flat in m.53 in the LH should be F#.

Found a typo: the F-flat in m.53 in the LH should be F#.

For those who might be thinking (What difference does it make?  Look at how chromatic the piece is!), take a look at the previous bar - 52 - and bar 54.

Already established is a semitone pattern of F# - G in bar 52: plus, revealing the E (= Fb) would rather spoil its dominance in the bar 54.

Grand Prize Question: which chord will the piece end on?   

Or: which note?   0:)

[North Star]

Annabel Lee is very enjoyable indeed. I don't have anything more intelligent to contribute at this point. Waiting for the organ sonata!

[Lisztianwagner]

Waiting for the organ sonata!

+1.
Congratulations for completing Annabel too! Is there a link where it can be listened to?

[Karl Henning]

Soon!

Seems clear to me, but that may just be because it is where I have long intended the movement to conclude!

And now: is it really done, or is it just that I tired of working on it for to-day?

A question I shan't be able to answer properly until to-morrow!
