Blast from the past

It's been a bit of an archival few days here. On Friday I was heading into the AMC in the Rocks so thought I'd take in some rolls of film I had lying around to be processed. Turned out that one of them even had photos of my cat, Ramases (who died in 1996) on it! Graduation photos and all sorts of things.

In preparation for the AMC jaunt I discovered that the score for my Remembrances of Half-Forgotten Dead People must have been lost when my hard drive crashed a couple of years ago (no, I haven't looked at it in a while!). Fortunately, I still have the graphics used to create the music pages of the score, so I can recreate it in Finale and make the tweaks I need to but grrrrr... very annoying. However, in hunting around for the original layout files, I did come across a pile of ancient pieces which I'd thought were lost forever, so that was rather satisfying and I'm hoping to trawl through them in a few weeks to see if there's anything worth either acknowledging or reworking.

Anyway, I'm pleased to announce that I have finally managed to get a score to the AMC - the piano version of Pieces of Eight, which should be catalogued as soon as Judith has the time... sometimes takes a few weeks. I'm also planning on dropping in the scores for (en)twine and twelve later this week, and with a bit of luck a CD too.
