The Oxen

Hi Sherry,

Yes, it has fermented and I have done some things, mostly with tempo and instrumentation. I have also reduced the melismatic character of the words-music match, giving the melody for those notes to instruments. It could probably be finished quite quickly. But since the words and the story they tell are really key here, I haven't done so. Kind of waiting for text to speech in music, I suppose, to make a recording. The score I finish first, and print, will probably be the voice/piano version.

all best,
