Forgot to post about it yesterday, but I had my first composition lesson with Forest. I don’t think I’ve ever been that excited about composing before in my life, actually - it was that good. We even have a composition lab set up in the back corner of the building - one computer running Sibelius and GigaStudio 3, and one computer dedicated to GigaStudio 3 with a KVM switch (so I can set up GS on one computer, and forget about it while I do composing on the other), a reasonably nice MIDI keyboard, and a 12 channel mixer/effects box (mainly for external reverb, which will keep GS focused on the samples and not take up too much craziness with software reverb). So awesome.
I guess I’m going to a party tonight and being an enabler. This is after I go to Sharon Gee’s recital *shudder
