New piece finished, took awhile to make-
« on: January 18, 2004, 08:49:45 pm »
Well, after quite a few afternoons of barely moving from my computer, I finally finished not too long ago an 11-minute piece written for a large orchestra entitled Pursuit of the Horizon, which was just a couple days ago approved to be posted on my site at Sibeliusmusic.com (http://members.sibeliusmusic.com/jcowing)
 If anyone's interested, they can go there to hear the piece & see the score, or if the page doesn't work (it requires a plug-in, some people just like to hear it as a midi file), you can also go to http://romus.xepher.net/cfox/
 I'm interested to hear what others think of it- I always appreciate feedback. '<img'>

Well, I really like all of them. Especially the fugue. '<img'>

But you already know what I think. '<img'>

You know, there's a chance I might get the fugue performed live by a chamber orchestra- wouldn't that be fun? '<img'>

Just finished listening to them, and I enjoyed all of them. I liked the Fugue the most, with Pursuit of the Horizon a close second.

Somehow this song brings back memories... very pleasant ones of a time and place other than this one.

On a technical note.... it's a very rich composition and I thoroughly enjoyed it.  I too would like to hear these proformed by a full orchestra.  When that day comes, please find a way to have it recorded for us to hear... or purchase on CD.
