New movement

rhuI've had a sketch for a while for the fourth movement of Kabbalat Shabbat, which is Psalm 98. Yesterday I tried to shape it a little further, and I realized that while it's a nice enough little ditty, it's not really right for either the text or the place in the overall musical arc. So for the first time, I shelved an almost-completed piece and started over.
I'm much happier with the new setting. It's more interesting; it's more in tune with the text; it's more fun. A little more polishing and it will join its fellow movements on my website.
Overall, I think I now have enough material (even though it's not complete) to try to organize a small group to put together a demo recording this summer. This makes me happy.
