Welcome! Panlingual is a site where "formal" and "pop" music come back together. It is a site for music lovers of all kinds, from those who can recall Shoenberg tone rows for memory, to those who have not a clue whether the piano keys go up to the left or to the right. If you love music, you are welcomed with open arms. If you don't, then I hope you will start to. Music can unite or divide. We have to choose which one it will do in the end.

Sculptures in Music?


Soooooo... I am currently collaborating with sculptor for my latest composition project. I am using the ideas behind her work, rather than the completed work itself, as the basis of the ideas in my musical work. This is, in a way, akin to Mussorgsky's "Pictures at an Exhibition," Wikipedia Page, but more idea-based than image-based. Also, I will have a theater student narrating quotes from the artist as part of the performance. The performance of this piece will be recorded and played at the artist's exhibition. The piece is tentatively titled "Sculptures Concealed" at the moment and is in the key of C Major... (lovingly titled C Major - no apologies). The exact reasons for the beginning key and subsequent key areas, I will divulge in a later post. For now, have a decidedly musical day! God bless!
