The latest Sibelius file (does not yet fully incorporate all the voice-writing I've done; but does reflect the Orffian shades):

[Karl Henning]

Yesterday, Paul rang . . . and among other matters, he wanted to introduce me via email to a choral conductor in Providence whose choir (Paul thinks) will make a good fit with Henningmusick.  So, I've now sent him the Kyrie, the De profundis, and the Exaltabo Te, Deus.

We shall see . . . .

[Karl Henning]

When I did my daily composing yesterday, I made my way through to The glow, the blush, the beating hearts of lovers . . . and, while I felt that I knew generally how I wanted to continue, I did not quite 'see' it.

Today, both in the morning on the train, and at the top of my lunch hour, I heard (and with such clarity, that I wondered why I fancied I did not hear it, yesterday) the rest of the stanza. At this point, then, I am a bit better than half done, and still rolling.

The soul needed to cook the words a little longer, apparently!

Spreading the Good News of Musical Illumination!

On one hand, I was copied on his timely reply to Paul; on t' other, I've had no acknowledgement that he received the scores.

But of course, it's high summer, so the delay may not much signify.

Blog ahoy!

Now incorporating The Love Song:

[Karl Henning]

Have been under the weather these few days, nor am I completely out from under it just yet.  Mostly I've needed rest, though (as the above file testifies) there is an occasional opportunity for some compositional energy.

Of the three remaining sections of Whitman's poem (6, 7 & 8) , 6 is the shortest.  With some luck, I may be able to apply myself to that a bit later today.

I noticed your relative absence from the forum these past few days. Sorry to hear you're sick. I wish you a speedy recovery.

[Karl Henning]

Thanks! For all that it's taken a few days, it is nothing grave: a sinus/throat annoyance. So my drill has been rest, hot liquids, elderberry extract.

I've been listening to Les heures persanes every day. Use that information as you will

I wonder how the progress is going on White Nights?

Just When You'd Forgotten All About the Piece Dept

My friend in Nashville wrote yesterday to say that she is reading through the Cello Sonatina with a pianist next week, "(and hopefully making an iPhone recording of [it])."

In other nearly-news, the conductor confirms that the scores reached him.

[Karl Henning]

Progress currently is on pieces with a visible timeline.  White Nights continues to wait.

Damn....

Damn....

Don't tell me you expected a different answer. 

Unless Karl finds an orchestra to perform it... if he did, I'd like to know the secret to doing this.

A Bablyak original will grace this show.

Big gains in The Mystic Trumpeter (check the blog, if you wish).


This morning, making sure all the clarinets in Misapprehension have clarifying cues in their parts . . . .
