Alchemy update
Had two rehearsals – yesterday and this morning, and it’s really coming together. The second movement still needs a little more passion and intensity, but the first and third are sounding fantastic. We have the dress rehearsal tomorrow morning in Alice Tully Hall, and I think that will give them time to pull the final details together. It’s been amazing to sit through these rehearsals – it never fails to teach me something new about composition and orchestration, and to remind me of how much more I need to learn. Fortunately, I don’t appear to have made any big mistakes… 🙂
So, the concert is tomorrow night, May 25th, at 8pm, in Alice Tully Hall. As I’ve said many times before, if you’re in the area (NYC), please come! It’s free, but you’ll need a ticket from the Juilliard Box Office – contact them at 212-799-5000 (ask for the Box Office extension). More info here.
Oh, no pics so far – keep forgetting to take any while I’m listening to the rehearsal…will try to get some during the dress in the morning…
