Elgan speaks
...and her words thunder across the land

It�s not over yet.

1:23 p.m.
Not by a long shot, and yet we have to deliver the complete package to the Pur0lator before 6:00 p.m. today. Hubby picked up the score from the print shop this morning, enlarged to 11 x 17 and bound, and it looks beautiful. Of course, there are still going to be some mistakes (it�s almost impossible to deliver an error-free product the first, or even second, time around), but the major ones have been caught and hopefully rehearsals will not come up with any surprises. I finished the string parts this morning, in their entirety, solving my problem of the time that formatting the aleatoric notation takes on the computer by just printing out blank staves wherein Hubby has drawn by hand the necessary squiggles and wiggles. I have promised him that at some point down the road, before the next performance anyway, I will copy that stuff on the computer and it will look very professional. But for this occasion there just isn�t enough time.

This was just a brief update. I must return to work now.
