Recording Tomorrow!

Update #10 · Jun 18, 2012 · comment
Just sending you all a quick update here: In only a couple hours I'm heading out to LAX for my flight to Boston! Yippee! At 10am tomorrow morning (Boston time), I'll be having breakfast with the executive producer of the album, and we'll begin recording at noon and go until 3pm. In other news, we have scheduled the next Anima Mechanicae live CA performance; this concert, I'll be joined again by the talented Kathleen Mangusing on violin, Miguel Cunanan on viola, and Anne Sherrill on cello (we're calling ourselves the McKinley String Quartet). And we'll be joined by guest clarinetist Carolyn Fields on Mozart's Clarinet Quintet in A. With Anima Mechanicae and the Mozart Quintet, we'll also be playing Beethoven's String Quartet in G, Op 18, No 2; AND we'll be playing another little, more recent quartet of my own composition--"In the Forest (Amazing Grace)" ... Mark your calendars for April 14th, 2013 at 4pm, in Cypress. Haha, it's so far ahead, you have no excuse not to go! :) I'll be keeping you updated on the album's progress as I find things out; I'll be "in the loop" every step of the way, throughout editing, to make sure it's exactly the way I want it--I'm totally not used to this!! I'm normally so easy-going, I'm just happy somebody is willing to attempt my works, haha!... I'm also looking forward to creating your very special Thank You cards, and specially designing your copies of the Anima Mechanicae score! Thanks again! I'll be in touch! :)
