Composing…

Just had a whirlwind of a few days immersed in musical gatherings and workshops/seminars.  It’s been so wonderful to connect with other musically creative people and feel incredibly lucky.  This week will be a delving into cues for the Romantic Comedy film with new valuable insight from other film composers which I garnered at the Sundance Film Festival composers workshop yesterday.  My approach to my first independent film will be extremely focused and it’s especially fortunate to work with a Director that loves music, is a musician and expresses clearly the feel and emotional content he wants in the film.  I’m so excited…a big step forward!   Other projects include the jazz ensemble, performance in October…a bit of a reprieve on this one…and some arrangements I’m gathering together (and creating) for piano/oboe/cello trio – will be recorded and possibly performed.  And  yes…I will be the pianist…;-)  Another huge step…
