@esapekkasalonen wildly fun reading hugely inexperienced people disagree with one of the top concert conductors in the world, but you know, knock yourselves out lol

@esapekkasalonen With software, I can give the conductors what they prefer. I prefer C scores, but have been beaten into submission enough that I keep both versions available (and make transposed versions of earlier scores as well).

@esapekkasalonen Unnecessarily dogmatic. Maybe Elektra is special because it has Hecklephones and other random instruments in G or whatever. But I think young composers who write scores in C will be written off as too basic / not knowledgeable enough on transpositions.

Note to all composers: write your scores in C. The usual octave transpositions are ok. I spent 6 weeks deciphering the chords in Elektra. After that I decided I’ll not put any conductor colleagues through that unnecessary ordeal with my own scores.

I am so lucky to have now called California my home twice in my life. I’m excited and proud to see 100+ organisations up and down the state working together for the first-ever California Festival. Congrats to all performers, and thank you to everyone working behind the scenes. ht

Not at all sure if I have all the Moomins in the valley still/yet, and if it’s a good or bad thing if I do, but sending (belated) best wishes for a happy Moomin’s Day nevertheless!
