Beautiful Composition Week

  Today I’m venturing off into the woods of New Hampshire and disappearing for a week on private writer’s retreat.  I’ll be off the grid and out of my usual environment.  I don’t know what I’m going to compose, or what instruments I’m writing for, or even if I will write anything at all, but [...]
