Cleveland Orchestra Reading Session No. 1

So sadly despite what the title of this post would lead you to believe this was not an orchestral reading.  But it was a reading of piano trios consisting of musicians from the Cleveland Orchestra, and I have to say it was amazing.  Getting to hear the trio I’m working on played by such a high caliber of musicians was a pretty ridiculous experience.  They gave a lot of constructive criticism that is really going to help me finish the piece.

The piece by the way is a work for piano trio called “A Mad Tea Party”.  Obviously its inspired by Lewis Carroll’s “Alice in Wonderland” and I’m currently working on the first movement titled “No Room”.

The trio will be coming back in April to read the pieces again after we finish them.  And I will probably get a recording of that but I don’t think I will be allowed to post it on here.  But not to worry I already have a potential performance of the piece lined up for next year.  I’ll post a score and midi when the piece is finished but in the meantime here is a link to a slideshow of photos from the session
