Continuing to do a major office purge. During the process, I came across the early notes (see above) for my Lord of the Rings song, The Question. I got the idea for the song after posting this Waiting For Frodo comic strip. Click on any page to see a bigger version. For those truly curious about how incoherent I can get during the songwriting process, you can then see an even BIGGER page if desired by clicking on "ALL SIZES." After getting a rough version written out on manuscript paper, the next stage in the process for me is sing the whole song to Allison & Jodi, then teach them their parts. I had the general arrangement figured out, but after going through it with A & J, we did a bit of rearranging. Jodi wanted to sing the line about Faramir, for example :-). And as always, they picked the song up pretty quickly at the first session, including some of the harmonies and counterpoint! I always feel lucky to have the music partners I do. :-) Erin's article about Nanowrimo is online at the writers' resource Toasted Cheese, for those interested. I was one of the people she interviewed for the piece. Session tunes update (tunes I've learned so far):
