October 22nd, 1pm, 2Flutes presents the flute duo version premiere of Duets for a Duo in Flashes of Inspiration and Joy a program of varied music from the Renaissance to Contemporary with music by NYWC members Joelle Wallach, Rain Worthington, and Pamela Sklar at St Paul’s Church Historic Site

I’m very excited that the recording of my piece, Within a Dance–a tone poem of love, for small orchestra, is part of this terrific enhanced-content compilation disc (with scores included) LUMINESCENCE, Navona Records, NV5969 (2014)

http://www.parmarecordings.blogspot.com/2014/09/september-releases-on-navona-and.html

LUMINESCENCE brings to light six works for small and large orchestra, showcasing the inspired directions and composers of contemporary orchestral music.

Rain Worthington’s Within a Dance–a tone poem of love reflects on a first invitation to dance and the continuation of the dance of love with a tenderness of touch and a lingering embrace. Her music communicates its emotions and speaks to the senses.

Thrilling to hear two incredible violinists perform “Night Stream” at the August 15 concert at the PARMA Music Festival. Thank you Sylvia Ahramjian & Emily Hanna Crane!!! 
Program note: Reflecting on the flow of life and time, imagined impressionistically as lights streaming across a rain-streaked window on a late night taxi ride through city streets.

Were you wondering “What is it like to be a Female Composer?” Alex Ambrose shares some brilliant comedic insights in http://www.wqxr.org/#!/story/how-to-talk-female-composer/

Nice! An Artist Spotlight for the upcoming PARMA Music Festival.

My violin duet, Night Stream will be performed in the Friday, August 15th “PENDULUM” concert. If you’re in Portsmouth, NH for the festival, say Hello.

Looking forward… I would like to invite you to Eva Ingolf’s premiere of my piece, An Evening Indigo.

I composed this piece especially for her in response to her call for short solo violin pieces.
And, I’m delighted to say, YAY, she liked it and will be playing it at the July 27th Vox Novus Composer’s Voice concert in NYC!

If you’re in the city then, it’d be a treat to see you there and say hello.
And, always appreciated is your support of live performances of music by some wonderful composers, performed by some masterful musicians!

Just received the recording of this wonderfully nuanced performance of my piano/marimba duet On Curious Reflection by Topher Ruggiero, piano and Nathan Shew, marimba! Recorded at the 2014 SCI National Conference, March 22 concert.

Saturday, May 10th, violinist, Lynn Bechtold will be performing my solo violin piece, Paper Wings, which I had composed upon request from violinist, Michael Braudy to premiere at a concert in India, and dedicated to my mother.

Coincidentally not only is this concert taking place on Mother’s Day weekend, but also interesting that this is at the Poets House, since my piece Paper Wings is about my my mother’s writing, and she has now been writing more poetry at this stage of her life.

This should be a nice concert program, if you’re out and about and in the mood for some lovely music, and also, importantly in these times, want to show your appreciation of live performances of music.

So honored to have this short piece selected by wonderful clarinetist, Javier Pérez Garrido for his concert of “Romances for Clarinet” in Spain.

Violinist, Michael Braudy has premiered several of my compositions for solo violin in his concerts in India. The first was the premiere of Paper Wings, which I had composed upon his request. Most recently, he performed two short solo violin pieces, After Thought (premiere) and Frost Vapors (which I had composed for violinist, Eva Ingolf’s tribute to her homeland of Iceland.)

Here’s a lovely poster for two of Michael’s most recent concerts.

Within a Dance was recently recorded by PARMA Recordings for upcoming summer 2014 CD release. Here’s an audio preview.
