Default The first movement, just title

The first movement, just titled "Prelude" is far down the page. This movement, more precisely the last chorus of "The Old Union/Dissolution Wagon" has cost me a couple of months, mostly because I had four or five dissonant overall sounds going through my head and kept re-writing. Remnants of the one in which Eb, D, and Db were used are still heard in the trombones and trumpets.

I have put this movement on Soundclick, but for those who can play a .not file, the lyrics here are easier to follow then they came out at Soundclick. It won't sound right playing it here, unless you have an orchestral percussion soundfont that you can put in for the Timpani and Cymbals, but it can be paged through as the SC file plays. Of email me, and I'll send a .pdf version of the score.

The research phase of the 3rd movement (Folks at Home) is nearly finished and that for the 4th (A-Field), and what will probably become the sixth movement (Love in Time of War) pretty well begun.

I am afraid the .not file is too long, so I zipped it up.
