Great piece, Wilhoit. I gotta go hear the other movements now!

How long did it take you to write?

[wilhoit]

Glad you like it!

The new (Notion) renderings of the other movements are in preparation; I'm going to try to post them yet this month.

You would have to ask the single most awkward possible question about this particular piece, wouldn't you? I began work on it in 1974. Of course over the intervening decades there were long periods during which I didn't touch it and I wrote many other things along the way. The bulk of the work was done in 1991-92 and in 2010. Now that I have Notion and therewith the possibility of substantially better audio renderings, I'm passing a damp rag over it one last time. Looking forward to getting it in the can and off my back.

Thanks,

[JohnF]

Wow. That's older than I've been walking around.

Glad you finished(ing) it though. I have some works sitting around I need to finish, but it's so daunting to start on something from even a year ago.

Thanks,

The first of those links didn't work for me: it's just a bunch of letters.

The piece is quite well done. In some places it's exciting and even moving. Skillful use of counterpoint. Nice work!
