Thanks be to God, I passed the oral comprehensives for my D.M.A. in Composition at the University of Kansas. I am thus, gratefully, ABD.

I am now on to work in earnest on my dissertation, which is a setting of the Te Deum for choir and orchestra, with an organ and choir version as well. Also, the release of my second CD is forthcoming on March 7. More details to follow.

Peace to all!
