Social media day is a holiday?

I joined twitter. We had an office-wide "let's all join twitter" day, and for what it's worth I'm enjoying it. Right off the bat I discovered that Phil Selway has a new single out, so I'll listen to that when I get home tonight. Follow me at twitter.com/nickwritesmusic.

New guitar

Last weekend I finally bought the '72 Telecaster Deluxe reissue I've been dreaming about. Man the twang on this thing is so sweet. That's all for now.

WomenSing and River of Words Commission

I received a call today from Libby Larsen to let me know that I've won a commission to write a piece for treble chorus for WomenSing. I'll be setting text written by young poets involved with the River of Words project, and the concerts will be on June 5 and 8, 2011 in San Francisco. Awesome!


I should also say that the concerts page of the website is now up to date.

Employed!

Just a quick update, I've finally found a job! I began this week as an administrative associate with the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra. They're an awesome group, and my coworkers are lovely people. I'm looking forward to doing a lot of good things with them. Check out LACO here, or have a look at the fancy page they made for me on their site by clicking here.
