4/18/2012: UIL Live version of "A Pantheonic Procession" - (Listen)
4/16/2012: Finished the first draft of "Solving Puzzles in the Dark" April is Autism awareness month. The piece depicts the joy, the sorry, and the hope of dealing with someone with Autism. Opening in a plaintive mournful fashion the works explores the step by step manner in not only education, but also the everyday life skills we all take for granted. One of the symbols for Autism is a ribbon comprised of multicolored puzzle pieces, hence the title and reference. The piece still needs some engraving work and the Harp part needs to be tweaked quite a bit. Tentatively set to premiere this May take a listen as well a look at the score. Let me know what you think! david.herring@sbcglobal.net
4/15/2012: Added another live version of "A Panthenic Procession" This was recorded at our PreUIL contest.
4/1/2012: Added a midi version of "Under the Waking Moon" as well as a sample score.
In the wilderness the moon shines above, lighting the earth beneath it. Home to the pack, ever watchful and ever vigilant. A stag appears on the ridge of the hill, majestic and solitary, swift as the wind. The pack pursues, and the chase is on. Despite the great stags speed and agility the strength of the pack prove to be too much.
