PA Arts Tuesday - Women's Ghazal Progress
I finished Bamyan Voids, the first movement of my new orchestral work, Hindu Kush, back at the beginning of my Holiday break. I'm about halfway done now with the second movement, Women's Ghazal, that uses themes inspired by five popular Afghan women's songs.

Can't wait for the movement when you bemoan the fact that American servicemen aren't dying in larger numbers because predator drones are getting the terrorists without using ground troops.
We went to the Nutcracker in Seattle, and I realized I don't know how dance scores are interpreted by the artists! How do dancers know what to do? I guess the choreographer must be important! Duh!
Look forward to Hindu Kush.
There are a few different kinds of recognized dance notation. I was going to call them complicated, but then I took a closer look at this score. Phil, Do you conduct? Wow, I must just be finding out what everyone else knows. This looks like a legitimate reason to drive to Anchorage . Hope to hear it someday.
mcdopemine,
I'll conducting Hindu Kush and three other works in Anchorage on May 15th at the Sydney Laurence Auditorium.
Don't forget to bring your "Stop US Imperialism" buttons...

After being a U.S. citizen for more than half a century, I'm beginning to wonder why we fight wars all the way across the globe, 11 or 12 time zones away.
Why?
Because people 11 or 12 time zones away are plotting, planning and training to kill us and destroy our nation.
