(no subject)
Feb. 12th, 2020 07:24 pmToday I've been working on PhD things, mostly. I'm at that stage where everything that's left is sortof difficult and fiddly: like, yes, I could describe this piece to you, but you're my examiner and you have the score so what are we both doing? You can see perfectly well that there are triplet crotchets in bar whatever.
However, I have a telephone meeting with my supervisor tomorrow, and I want to have all my ducks in a row. So there it is.
I did also get some Patreon rewards sent out; the rest will go out tomorrow, because I didn't have the right kind of envelope for the scores (there are... a lot. I got rather behind.) And I worked on a set of canticles for a competition. I imagine there will be quite a few entries for this competition given that the spec is similar to one that had a deadline in the autumn, for which the winner has now been announced; but the point of competitions isn't really to win them, anyway.
That said (and it isn't really a competition as such), if you're in London on 19th March then do come along to JAM's Music Of Our Time concert, which will include the world première of one of my pieces, The Hand That Made Us Is Divine.
