The Wicklow Piano Concerto

This blog has been set up to document a composition project by Cheryl Frances-Hoad. The idea, to write a piano concerto for pianist Bobby Chen and the Greystones Orchestra, based on the ideas and contributions of people of Co. Wicklow, Ireland, won the Music Commission from Wicklow County Council's Per Cent for Arts Scheme.

An amazing amount of Admin!


After all the excitment of winning the commission, I've now come down to earth after hearing the amount of admin I have to do before it all goes ahead! Spent ages yesterday phoning/emailing schools in Ireland, trying to fix dates for the composition workshops that Bobby Chen and I are going to do, signing lots of forms, finding out whether I'm insured for personal liability insurance whilst I'm in Ireland (in case I get hit by a flying cymbal in one of the Greystones Orchestra rehearsals?), finding out about bank charges (I'm wishing the UK had the Euro at the moment!), and a myriad other things!
