I ended up describing my works as bagatelles. Steve Layton had the great idea of petites four, which I would have gone with if I thought I wouldn’t encounter the genre problem, but I know I will. At least a traditional classical name might hint the outstanding workers at the distribution sites to label our music correctly. But I am still not expecting much in the way of cooperation.
Speaking of Steve Layton, he did the artwork for my album cover, which is a shot of Mary Jane Leach’s residence, which happens to be a church with a bell tower. Thanks once again to both of them.
Also notice the NetNewMusic logo, which will likely be employed by various artists composing avant-garde works in the future. The latest release date is set for February 29, 2009. As I’ve mentioned, I am simply releasing the mp3s for DL this go around.

Hey! Congratulations on the second album! Now I’ve got a lot of catching up to do …
Thanks, Marc. Catching up, nah. You were never behind. I would bet you have much more in the way of brilliant scores finished up. I need to work on that aspect. I hate scoring.
