composer FAIL #73


Correction: I received four rejection letters during my Vietnam trip. Apparently one of them got lost in the oodles of email that flooded my inbox while I was gone.

Part 2 of 4


Unfortunately I don't remember what I submitted. Congrats to Lansing McLoskey!

Hey guys, I'll be getting to know the Ohio section of the I-75 this weekend! If you're in the Cincinnati/Toledo/Bowling Green area, please stop by and say hi. My schedule is below.

Thursday

2:00 p.m.

Talking With Sessions: Teaching the Arts with Rafael de Acha, University of Cincinnati Blue Ash campus

I'll be part of a roundtable discussion with James Slouffman, President of the Cincinnati Wagner Society, and Kathleen Doane, Arts Writer Lecturer at the University of Cincinnati English Department.

Friday

2:30 p.m.

Lecture on my music at Bowling Green State University

I don't officially know what I'm presenting yet, but maybe I'll discuss my recent pieces (which might include opera stuff) and how running an opera company might take years off your life.

7:00 p.m.

TWO HOT! Produced by ADJ•ective New Music, LLC and Gathered Gallery and Studios

This event will take place in Gathered’s convivial gallery space and include glass blowing performances accompanied by electroacoustic music with a glass theme and guest artists Elise Roy (flute) and Matt Younglove (saxophone). My new fixed format piece "bifocals"will be performed.

8:00 p.m.

micrOPERA: an evening of 20th and 21st century chamber operas, Wolfe Center for the Arts, Eva Marie Saint Theatre, Bowling Green State University

Krispy Kremes and Butter Queens (yes, that opera) will close the show.

(I know what you're thinking—how on earth can I be at both performances at the same time? I ask back, how on earth did Sherlock survive that fall? Unfortunately, I don't have answers for either question.)

Saturday

8:00 p.m.

micrOPERA: an evening of 20th and 21st century chamber operas, Wolfe Center for the Arts, Eva Marie Saint Theatre, Bowling Green State University

Oh, but I will be there for this performance.
