Compose


Romans 8: 24-25, Op. 379 (2022) --

kind of a backhand endeavor, as initially set out to edit

St. Paul Suite, Op. 145 (2007)
    IV. Blind


seaching for (and not very confident in finding) Igor Stravinsky (1882-1971) - Oedipus Rex (1927 -- with its reference to "Oedipus has piereced his eyes with her golden pin") online, but, lo and behold, 2022 is just over 50 years after the composer's death, so suddenly 96 of his pieces are now available on the International Music Score Library Project -- yipee! -- so duly dig in, just in case the out-of-copyright-in-Canada doesn't work south of the border in future (such was the case w/ Sergei Prokofiev for an interval...), but then happen upon A Sermon, a Narrative, and a Prayer (1961), and decide that the first movement of this (second movment previously troped in St. Paul Suite, Op. 145 [2007]), would be useful in The Letters, Op. 360 (2021) and can stand as two independent pieces, the first above...


Also update the Works site re

The Twelve Finters, Op. 8 (1977)

and provide more text w/r/t

Book of Dreams, 2022, Op. 376 (2022)

More horrors revealed re the Lying Psychopath -- and

given the amount of evidence

from two impeachment trials,


January 6 and its fore- and aftermath,



to say nothing of


general criminal behavior


throughout life,


isn't it time


for justice


to


prevail?


So say we all!


Meanwhile, time to continue to get organized...
