I am composing. Without my notebook. Without my laptop. Just letting the sounds in my head gestate, fester, morph. Who knows where this will go.
Most of the second movement, Splash (from Sea Symphony), is written. It's there, in notation, even orchestrated. But there's a big hole. In fact, two big holes. Right now, I don't know how to fill them. I have some ideas in my notebook. I have even worked up some of them in notation. But it's not there yet. I just have to trust that the creative brain will do its job. Maybe tonight. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe next week. Who knows? But I trust it to deliver.
