May 9 - Perchance
Slightly warmer (high c. 72), for composing page 11 of Psalm 55, reformatting King David: VII. Oh for the Wings of a Dove into Encore from Sibelius, doing final edits of the taxes, and finding the way to Diablo Valley College, where Dillon bails out the scheduled presenters by taking the reigns early in a dictation from Dream Theatre,
featuring a melody modulating from F Minor to its relative Ab Major (perhaps most easily solfeged in fixed do) and
a harmonic passage from earlier in the composition that seems to move from F Major to Bb Minor -- marvelous! Also marvelous, a belated Compostion 2 from James, then passing off quizzes with Mitch, Katie, and Eduardo.
Homeward in the moderate bluster, at last mailing the taxes, and beginning the rest of the day's activities, including pdf of The 12 Fingers: XII. March, transfer of Joshua Fought the Battle (Op. 64), and a little farther with the video of Camino Real: Block 9. Also begin the ASCAP yearly Standard Awards application.
