Sneak preview; Guy Livingston filming the performance piece
"Solo Concerto for Conductor"
The first few bars, shown here, of a piece written for a conductor performing solo. The original idea is from many years ago and I revisited and completed the piece in one of the solitary periods of the pandemic. Inspirational, and fun, piece to study and perform in such an environment. Contact me if you want a copy.
