]]> What a fantastic, successful concert last night at Saint Peter’s! Sofia Dimitrova selected a program that represents a terrific snapshot of contemporary vocal music. (If I may say so given that one of my pieces was scheduled!) Marilyn Bliss, David Tcimpidis, Paul Moravec, Kevin McCarter, and Raphael Fusco are all terrific writers for the voice. I hope Sofia will repeat this exact concert again; anyone interested in vocal music of today should hear such repertoire sung so perfectly.

Lots of thanks to Sofia and her ideal accompanist, Catherine Miller. And the evening would not have been complete without the superb contribution of Stani Dimitrova on violin, who added another color on the night to my Rilke songs.
