Penny Candy Redux

Thanks for the reminder about Penny Candy* and the Rod Serling comment!

I recall writing stories in grade school and found myself wondering how and why they always turned out to be rather short.

Now it seems I have no trouble writing things 400-500 pages or more!    

When I was composing my cantata Exaudi me, the original concept included a 9-voice fugue lasting nearly 100 bars, which would have lengthened the work to nearly an hour, and would have no doubt exhausted the performers.  So, I removed the fugue, brought the work in right under 30 minutes, and I think it was the correct thing to do.  😇

Partly congruent with my own experience. Even where we differ, though, good insights.

In my latter years of High School a friend drew me in to a kind of coffeehouse fellowship at his Episcopal parish. The Sign of the Fish was led by John & Jacquie Levy. On learning of Jacquie's passing I wrote a small memorial piece. Carson Cooman recently posted a performance:

I'm sorry to hear about the passing of your friend.  I'll have to listen to your ichthus.

I visited your work again: I noticed this time the name of the manufacturer!  A possible Christmas gift for the grand-children!  😇

Today is Mom's followup CT-Scan day.

Mom "graduated." She's officially off the surgery hook. No more head scans.

And I had PT with Mike, after which we took Mom to a celebratory lunch. And now I'm up from my post-therapy nap.

Excellent news. I am sure this is a huge relief!
