More heated activity, posting
Two and a Half Pieces on the
International Music Score Library Project (having to designate it as 2.5 for proper alphabetization... whatever...) before heading out to the
carnival
of
Gigi's 50th birthday celebration,
with music,
appropriately enough, by Melody and company.
Then
more
melodious
activity,
beyond
the Bay Bridge for the
San Francisco
Composers Chamber Orchestra's
Lost Things Found,
with
final
rehearsals
(for Bernard Herrmann
and
Loren Jones),
sound checks (for William Severson,
John
Beeman,
Samuel Ostroff, Martha Stoddard,
Lisa Scola Prosek, and Allan Crossman), and the concert itself -- excellent from start to finish.

Home thereafter for the usual suspicious tasks -- in this case
Editing third movement of The Little Prince video as a discrete file,
Composing third page of Psalm 64,
Orchestrating 37 of The Countess Cathleen, and
Beginning pdf's for Embedded Inventions (Op. 20).
