After doing some listening, I started to work on the CSIC piece this morning. I didn't get much down, but I set up the score for the final engraving and worked out a few ideas.

The Composers and Schools in Concert String Orchestra Commission now has five schools and ensembles participating. I anticipate a December 1st delivery of the score.

The five orchestras and directors are:
  • Edwardsville High School - Victoria Voumard, director
  • Alton High School - Alton, Illinois - Laura Plummer, director
  • Sequoia High School - Redwood City, California - Daniel Broome, director
  • Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory School- Indianapolis, Indiana - Brandon Lee, director
  • Little Delaware Youth Ensemble - Oneonta, New York - Uli Speth, director
​
I will be meeting with each of the ensembles by September 25th and will start work on the piece very soon!
