Yes, please just casually drop my name. That would be awesome.
“We are guests of the composer … please direct me to the box seats?”

How was the world premier?

I got to conduct the ensemble, so I can only speak from that perspective. For me, it was … rapturous. One of the highlights of my musical life.

It was incredible! I had chills for most of the piece and started crying during the “deliver us” section. Very powerful in person. I was so proud of the 30 guys from Male Chorale who pulled it off. I’ll let you know, that Mike received a standing ovation, and this was in the middle of the concert. I was very very proud.

Zack shot HD video of it, and we did a live recording. As soon as I have copies I’ll post them.
