i will wade out

So this piece took a long time to figure out in my head...like I posted earlier the Eric Whitacre version is so good and captures the feeling so well it was hard to find something new and different to say. But the poem is so beautiful and deep that I really tried my best to bring out the natural beauty of the text. I did some very different things than what i usually do. There's a lot more tonal shifting than I usually do, with a few really dramatic harmonic shifts. I'm really trying to expnad my musical language and this was just another step. I'm pretty happy with my work, and it can be found posted first on my myspace music page.

Why you no blog no more?

140 characters can only convey so much. How is a childhood best friend to keep tabs on you?
