ANOTHER ADDENDUM IN DARK DAYS

Certainly there are a few chamber-works waiting in the back drawer – waiting for
the light.
Maybe Tenorlieder, or a work for 2 Clarinets, pieces for Violin and Piano ( – this must in no way smack of culinary compromise, sweet cake or Kitsch ), a string quartet with double bass, an exciting work for ” Pierrot” quintet , a freshly baked Piano Trio ( with Viola ), the exquisite 8 IRISH DUETS for Cello and Piano and more.
They all await the light. Patiently. Also the huge MY ALTO RHAPSODIES with Full Orchestra.
No point in gnashing teeth at the times, paucity of chances, leadership, spondoolicks, understanding, readiness, curators or canon . No point. Tiocfaidh
a la. ‘Ar la. Their performance . Their epiphany. Meanwhile, the back drawer. Back-burner.
