LaGrange Symphony set to perform Dead Symphony no. 6 October 5, 2010

Dead Symphony no. 6 went on an unexpected journey after its 2008 world premiere in Baltimore. The score got some road dust, the parts got more markings and the corners of the pages were getting the familiar curls and creases of a composition that has experienced some life changing downbeats.
After the incredible performance in Santa Cruz, CA lead by the great interpreter of contemporary music, Marin Alsop, I decided to take the symphony in from the road and give it one last haircut before I considered it to be publishable.
