Last Friday I presented my second draft of the 1st movement. It went over much, MUCH, better than the first. I was able to convey one character throughout and effectively achieve what my goal was. I'm currently still in the process of writing the second movement. I've discovered that what I had originally thought of the 2nd is just not going to work with my idea, which is causing me to get stuck in a compositional ditch. I've dug my way out though! While working out some awesome-o counterpoint for my assignment for the other class I was able to doodle out a main idea for the 2nd! HUZZAH! If it weren't for theory, counterpoint and conducting taking up my time now (and those meddling kids) I'd be working it out right now, but alas, too much to get done in one night.

  1. Good entry! Being "stuck in a compositional ditch" (as you so aptly put it!) is a common experience to all composers, and I'm glad to hear you dug yourself out of it!.
