First Commission

Yes, that's First Commission...NOT First Communion. Catholics get it. Anyway, I have indeed accepted my first commission! The Livingston County Chorale, Brighton, Michigan, under the direction of Kelli Falls, has commissioned me to compose/arrange three choral works. The first completed piece is My Lord, What a Morning, for SATB choir, divisi, Soprano and Baritone soloists, and piano. Kelli's accompanist is excellent, so I wrote a rather advanced piano part for her. Kelli wanted a "thick texture", so in much of the piece, the choir will be singing in 7-8 parts. I use Sibelius as my notation software, but during playback, it can only approximate the real thing, so I cannot wait to hear what Kelli, the choir and the accompanist will do with this piece! Luckily, there will be plenty of time to rehearse it before the spring concert...
