I've finished my new brass quintet and am proofing the score and parts. It's a piece that's a little bit like my 4th string quartet arrangement for sax quartet, Spirale d'Arco in its breadth and generous emotional spaciousness. I play on strange phasing rhythms like I did in that piece too.

The piece for flute and vibraphone I wrote for Due East has undergone a few revisions, some at their suggestion. In particular, the ending is now a huge virtuoso splash! They've played it twice now, I'm hoping for another performance this year.

I've arranged my piece Irae for Violin, Viola and Contrabass for the same grouping but with clarinet instead of viola at the request of conductor/violinist Alexey Kurkdijan who works out of São Paulo. I've made a new realization and the new score and parts are available too. I really like it; it seems much more disturbed and bizarre than the original arrangement. Rehearsals have started and the premiere of this arrangement should be July 26th in São Paulo!

I'm now working on a new big piece for Alexey in the form of a septet comprised of flute, oboe, clarinet, piano, violin, cello, and contrabass. It's going to be massive!
