This has been an amazing week. I had a very productive meeting with Dave Philp’s Music and Entertainment class at William Paterson University. They are helping me with the PR and Marketing of Sonic Divide. What a bright and enthusiastic group of young people. I just love being a part of the WP music department.
Then, I received an incredible piece in my inbox from Taylor Ho Bynum. I will do a feature on his music in a few weeks, but his Cross Breath is stunning. So simple, yet so complex, and in every way perfect for Sonic Divide.
Then just today I spent the afternoon with Jerome Kitzke. Here is a sample of his piece:

Again, I will go into much more depth about his work in subsequent blogs. But wow oh wow is that an amazing piece that includes a lovely dance element and a spacial realization. And he did the entire score by hand! Amazing!
