🔊 New Release: Holy Saturday
An EP with three versions of a work: for solo piano; for violin, viola, cello, and contrabass; and for chamber orchestra.
Hello, everyone! I have just released some new music: Holy Saturday – EP , a new short work composed for, well, Holy Saturday—that is, tomorrow as of the day of this release!
The EP consists of three versions of the work: one for solo piano; one for violin, viola, cello, and contrabass; and one for chamber orchestra with flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, harp, tubular bells, and string section.
Holy Saturday – EP is available on roughly every music service in the world!
For purchase:
Streaming:
- Apple Music
- Pandora
- YouTube and YouTube Music
- Amazon Music
- Tidal
- Spotify (but see below on this one!)
If you like it, would you do me a favor and share it with someone, post about it on whatever social media you use? That really is critical for small, independent artists.
For more background on the piece, see 🎼 March 2025: How Music Represents, or check out this video version of the essay:
A note on Spotify: unless you all share this and listen to it a lot, I will get literally not a penny from Spotify, which has been finding its way to profitability by doing things like cutting off payment for streams for artists whose tracks have less than a thousand streams. Spoilers: that still applies to every piece of music I have published! I don’t make much anyway, but that particularly stings: it means I won’t even get that single cup of coffee every year or two. If you like this work, do me a favor and consider purchasing it or at least streaming it from a service that is less hostile to artists?
I’ll be back at the end of the month with the usual monthly update, focused on orchestration, as promised in March’s issue.
Thanks so much for listening!
