So, my highschool<\/a> in Providence, RI, asked me to write a new piece for them. I set a current student’s poem (who happens to be the younger sister of a friend of mine from years ago) for choir, flute (played by the son of my 6^{th<\/sup> grade math teacher), and piano four-hands.
\nThis is all going to go down on May 4th<\/sup>, at 6:30 PM (“for the younger kids”) and again at 8:00 PM “for teenagers.” The distinction is, I believe, one of space rather than content, although you never know. I remember there being an outpouring of horror when my friend Melina sang (quite beautifully!)} Joni Mitchell<\/a>‘s Blue<\/em> eight years ago in front of everybody, as if the mere mention of “needles” was going to make the fifth graders go shoot up underneath the ol’ ash tree<\/a>. In any event, if you’re in Providence on May 4^{th<\/sup>, come to whichever s\u00e9ance suits your sensibilities. I’ll be conducting. More details are on} their site<\/a> if you click around aggressively enough. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
