I’ve been writing cello and reed (clarinet/flute) orchestrations for Marry Harry – a very intense and beautiful process. So – in addition to piano and ten voices – we’ll be adding these instruments – to enrich and expand the sound at our NYMF performances this July.

In My Body Demos

Spent a few wonderful days in New York in December recording 9 new songs we’ve written for the In My Body Project. Here’s Javier Munoz, Jonathan Brody, and Kelly Karcher rehearsing Holly & Hubby. H & H is a short (p)opera – a love duet between a husband and wife healing from a near-death experience. The libretto is based on a story by Kate Cipriano. Kelly sang Holly, Javier sang Hubby, and Jonathan was our narrator. Beautiful!
