Corrections and News
Exactly a month ago I wrote of being commissioned by NYSSMA (New York State School Music Association) for 2011. That was, I'm sorry to say, incorrect. I am to be commissioned to write a chamber work for 2011, but the commission comes from the New York chapter of Music Teachers National Association (MTNA). It's (still) a prestigious commission, just not the one I thought it was. I am honored to accept it and can't wait to find out what it is I will actually be writing. The premiere will be around October of 2011.
But even before that I have another commission for 2011--spring of that year to be precise--from the New York Repertory Orchestra. I've been in touch with David Leibowitz, the conductor/music director of that ensemble, and in a nutshell, it's a "go."
Now all I have to do is figure out what I'll be doing in 2010!
