World premiere of Syzygy On november 22nd Clarinet ensemble Lignum played my piece Ssyzygy which I wrote for them. It was performed at the Evangelische Lutherse Kerk in Leiden and the typical church acoustics worked great for the music. It was a mixed audience (not only modern music lovers) so for some people it was a bit of an unexpected thing, but there were lots of positive reactions. Although I was satisfied with the performance, I was not 100% happy with the form. So afterwards (actually, just before the premiere) I decided to take out the last section and rewrite the middle part. Off course I didn't want to change it last minute so this was the (probably) only performance of this version. I took some time to get it right and hopefully they will play the revised Syzygy somewhere in 2009. |
