Why thanks, w of acl! The music from Soul Descending is definitely something I'm terrifically proud of. In fact, I feel that way about the dance theater production as a whole. Sadly, it's also one of my many not-quite-completed works. It needs a bit more work to really be complete, but it is on my overflowing plate of projects to complete. In the meantime, enjoy what I've got! More to come, there's 8 scenes in all.
