In related news, I will be singing in Daphnis et Chloé soon, so you may be seeing more Daphnis score study content from me in there next few weeks
an excerpt from Daphnis et Chloé by Maurice Ravel, starting at the second measure of rehearsal 1. The chorus is given the lyric "A" at a dynamic of piano, but since the dynamic marking is placed below the staff just before the lyric, it looks like it says "pA"
See this is why when you write for chorus the dynamics go ABOVE the staff
soprano
alto
tenor
bass
I know orchestras set their programming well in advance, so if you've got any connections to an orchestra that might be looking for Christmas music about now, I would very much appreciate if you would direct them to this piece 👇👇
And finally, a setting of the poem "The Birds' Lullaby" by E. Pauline Johnson: soft and sweet music about the night and the forest, with a featured role for the second sopranos in verse two

Second is a setting of the poem "Nocturne" by Sadakichi Hartmann: soft and melancholy music about the night and the ocean, with a featured role for the bass section

And there's also a version with piano accompaniment available here

I've published three new pieces! First, a setting of It Came upon the Midnight Clear for SATB Chorus and Orchestra. Here's an audio demo I made:

dead, apparently
I am a regular guy. I can make edits and send in the new version in a timely fashion.
sausage and green olives club! that sounds amazing!
anyway the Shrek thing was pretty funny once I actually heard about it
lrb: sometimes I develop a mental block about a particular social media platform I frequent and just don't end up doing there for a while, not even for any reason, my brain just decides nope.
so I was gone, but now I'm back (I think)
I'm so bad at bluesky that I found out about Swarovski Shrek via Tumblr
The existence of Concerned Ape both inspires me and stresses me out
godspeed 🙏😔
it's one of my primary considerations
wait I actually forgot this was a line from the original show! that wasn't even an intentional reference 🤣
I've been a fan of @shipwreckedcomedy.bsky.social for a very long time (one might even say since their inception), and now they're making a musical! Consider giving them money? It'll be a good time I promise!

Did I really write all these notes? how are there so many?
Gearing up to publish some more music soon! Unfortunately I am also very tired and sleepy, and proofreading often turns into zoning out....
