The decision was made recently to put Harmonic Patina on hold for about a year until our members are more available to make it work. I am saddened by this, but am the first to acknowledge that projects have to flow and when you are repeatedly coming up against conflicts, there's no sense in forcing it. We all have other places to focus our energies currently, and hopefully we can revisit the idea later with renewed zeal.
Meanwhile, rehearsals are underway for DeCantus, I am working to increase my wedding/funeral repertoire, and the Quartet is learning more new pieces for the Homecoming Weekend at Presentation. I am quickly drowning under all this sheet music! I am definitely in need of a new organizational system for my music, but, besides the obvious space issues, I don't know where to begin. Should I file strictly alphabetically? By language? By season? By style? So many pieces cross genres that I'm constantly pulling them out and putting them back in different places. Any ideas, fellow musicians? How do you organize?
