Right Where It Belongs
My apologies for how absent I’ve been lately. This Saturday I’ll be in Costa Mesa performing my first full-length recital in four years, the production of which occupying nearly all of my time for the past few weeks. I will have more information pertaining to the specifics within the next day or so, as I have not yet finished writing the program. I will say, however, that on the program are three world premieres — one of which being my first bona-fide new composition since 2003 — and one unpublished work from an otherwise established composer. Stay tuned, kiddos.
Oh, and Paul, I haven’t forgotten about you — promise.
I’m off to the Klatch to finish these damn program notes once and for all, and in the meantime I leave you with yet another of Trent Reznor’s consistently poignant output — I’ve had this playing on a loop for the past couple days. Enjoy!

Holy crapola, I am so in love with that video. I would have to compare and contrast, but there’s a video somewhere of Trent Reznor singing “Hurt” live and behind him is this massive screen onto which this endless parade of pain-and-death images is projected. It’s really quite moving with him all small and in front of it. It might be on YouTube somewhere, I haven’t looked for it.
Anyway…if I don’t hear from you soon, good luck with the recital!
EDIT (like 2 minutes later):
I found the video I was talking about. It’s even better than I remember — it’s acutally a scrim in front of him, so he falls in and out of visibility with the images. Check it out.
