I think it's safe to say that my Random Shuffle project, after 24 installments, has fallen by the wayside. I might pick it up again, but I can't make any promises.
It was interrupted by the composition of a song cycle, "Underground," which I finished yesterday -- why write about other people's music when you can write your own? That's my feeling, anyway.
I just downloaded Colin Matthew's orchestration of Debussy's "Girl with the Flaxen Hair." It's really something to hear, especially if you're familiar with the original. I think I'll soon download the whole disk of orchestrated Preludes, as soon as I've adequately convinced myself that I am not totally broke.
(Am I broke? I really can't tell...)
