New recording posted
I’ve posted a recording of “Monument,” the first movement from my in-progress Sinfonia, on my MySpace page. It was read earlier this week by the UMKC Conservatory Orchestra, who performed it admirably (the recording is spliced together from various takes done over the course of a mere 20 minutes–the first time the orchestra saw the music!). Many thanks to the orchestra and to Brandon K. Brown for his conducting work.
Movements 2 though 4 are in the works, and the whole Sinfonia should be completed in the spring.

De Profundis has been selected for performance at the 2008 SCI Student National Conference, held October 10 and 11 at Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana.
It is tentatively programmed for Saturday (the 11th) at 8pm. I’ll post updates if there are changes, and probably also when the time is closer.
UPDATE, 4 October: Click here for the homepage for the conference, including a schedule of events and such.

Format change
As you may notice, I’m changing things around here. I’ve become increasingly uncomfortable with the “personal blog” thing for a while now, particularly since this was never in fact supposed to be such a beast, but rather a forum in which I could write about matters involving music and theology. For a variety of reasons, I would now prefer to focus on my musical activities, perhaps occasionally including theological and other content when appropriate. Over the next days I’ll be going through old posts and removing things that I’m not interested in having out there for the whole world to see, but I’ll be keeping archives in the event that someone would want to remember a discussion we had at one point or another.
In the meantime, bear with me as I figure out the best way to format this as a music website. I’ll be posting regular updates about performances and projects and such, in addition to hosting the kind of static content for which I have previously used my other website (scottblasco.com, soon to be redirected here).
More to come…
