Excerpt from Psyche and Eros

This is an excerpt from PSYCHE AND EROS written by Margaret Wolfson and myself and performed by us with the Marisa Polesky on violin. The piece is rather like a sort of PETER AND THE WOLF on steroids and not strictly a piece for kids. The original version was premiered by Barbara Day Turner at San Jose Chamber Orchestra, BB--before blogs.

Psyche and Eros in West Memphis

This past week, Margaret Wolfson and I gave two performances of PSYCHE AND EROS at DeltaARTS' Lincoln Center Institute. Memphis Symphony Assistant Principal violinist Marisa Polesky played with a great blend of fire and spot on accuracy. The Institute format allowed us to give two performances for the group of 40 teacher-participants. Follow up performances will be in November. Fortunately, we were also able to make a high quality archival recording with Shelby Johnson engineering.
