A very cold dark morning in Michigan and I’m running late. I discovered yesterday that I had reconstructed most of my “Pentecost Suite for Marimba and Organ.” My files show that I had requested that Peter Kurdziel send me a copy of the piece since I couldn’t find my own copy. He did so. Working from that copy and maybe some older files I prepared a performance copy for Rhonda. It looks like I put most of the piece back into Finale files with the exception of the marimba part for the last movement. I carefully prepared the marimba part for the first two movements yesterday and sent them to Rhonda. I’m planning to finish preparing the last movement tomorrow since today I’m pretty busy.
