New Video Up

Hey again,

So today I am super super excited to announce the release of the premiere performance of "a cold surrogate, a penance play" by Jordan Kusel. This was a wild work to learn, took a great amount of time and willingness to learn this piece. Pieces like this that circumvent the traditions have always fascinated me. More on that later, here is the video.



Yup that's what I got to say today, if you watch this and it makes you feel things, good, bad, strange, scary, uncomfortable, whatever let me know drop a comment.

Addendum to article in the horn call

Hello faithful readers... reader...silence?

If you may have noticed I had an article appear in the Horn Call, the journal of the international horn society. There is mention of some "examples" that seem to not be in the printed publication so, I submit for the approval of the midnight society, those said examples.

I should also be releasing soon a recording of the premiere performance of the work by Jordan Kusel that is spoken about in the article soon.

Example 1

Example 2

So.. there ya go. if you have any questions fire them off, I had even more hours to stare at the score and come up with ideas for this particular work. So ask away, hit the +1, throw a share.
