Hashkiveinu rewrites done!

I had a good day today. Managed to get the intro and inserts for the Hashkiveinu done and I have a better handle on the piano accompaniment. I even think the final orchestration is pretty much finished in my head.

I took a few minutes this afternoon and played with the dice. I sorted them all into the different sizes and then took three rolls of the eight sided dice. Didn't see much of anything in the results today, but I didn't take the time to actually play any of them. I'll try again tomorrow. (I mapped the numbers out onto the diatonic scale.)

There was a concert of the Civic Orchestra tonight. It went very well, even if it wasn't very well attended. Was it the location? The orchestra? I'm not sure. I played piano and harp parts (on the piano, of course). I even made a bone headed rookie mistake and misread the key signature in one spot. Sheesh. I've been playing and writing music for how long now?

I'm off to go put the edits and inserts into the Finale file for the Hashkiveinu. I have a rehearsal with the soloist tomorrow and I need to have at least the vocals finished.

Today's photo is of the intro and insert for the Hashkiveinu. By the way, that's F148548 they're sitting on.
