KabShab progress
Dec. 25th, 2009 02:44 pmAs I've mentioned here recently, I'm currently trying to wrap up a bunch of long-open projects. For December, my goal has been to complete composing my setting (for a cappella sextet) of Kabbalat Shabbat, the selection of Psalms and paraliturgical texts that "Welcome the Sabbath".
Well, for those who don't follow my hour-by-hour progress on Facebook, this week I finished the basic work on the three remaining movements. (The first movement stops halfway through the chapter, though, so I will probably revisit it.)
I have created a real homepage for the project, containing a complete set of mp3s, as performed by my computer synth, and preliminary PDFs for many of the movements.
I've got a week left in December to write the missing half-movement and format the score for the new ones. (In many cases the PDF will show everything on a piano reduction, which I need to explicitly split out into the six voices and to which I must add the lyrics.) Lookin' good for meeting my self-imposed deadline.
