The premier of "Eyes Down/Headphones In" was really well received - as far as I could tell from the talk back session after the show. The quartet who ended up playing did a great job playing under somewhat unusual performance circumstances (try keeping tempo while dancers are flinging limbs at you).

The piece is being performed twice again this month - Jan. 28th at 9pm and the 30th at 6pm at the Cool New York Dance Festival. 

I've started work on a trio for some friends of mine - Viola, Bass and Oboe. I'm at the point where I have some "sound ideas" but no real concrete idea or system yet. This is the stressful part of composing.

Two of my pieces (one an acoustic piece, and one an electronic remix of other music from the record) have been released on Consortium5's new nonclassical cd Tangled Pipes. The US Distribution for the disc is really good, a quick googleshopping search came up with these results. It's pretty surreal to actually have music available for people to buy. I've always been slightly jealous of people who have CDs in record stores. Now, apparently, I'm one of those people. I can't say enough how much I enjoy the whole album. All the acoustic pieces are played really, really well, and all the remixes are interesting.
