"Violin Stories" ~ epic Jon Anderson orchestral work
Posted: Wed Sep 21, 2011 4:21 pm
"Violin Stories" is a 7 movement work for violin & orchestra conceived by Jon Anderson. After he & I had begun writing together, he said, "Let me send you something to work on...", and soon, 7 mp3 files arrived in my email box. Jon's original idea was a violin concerto, but, as my orchestrating progressed, he said, "This is a ballet!" Jon then sketched a story line about a magical, crystal violin that would transport whomever played it to different parts of the world. Jon is an amazingly deep well of artistic ideas!
To listen, go to facebook and type Violin Stories in the search bar. Click on "Violin Stories- Jon Anderson and Bill Kilpatrick" at the top, then scroll down. Each movement is on a separate player. It's a lengthy work, so might I suggest listening to movements 3 & 6 to get started...
And yes, it was all done in DP!
