Sandy,
The eddington doesn't have any real theater, there is a little bit of speech, but when I approached Alex, I asked for a serious piece, The piece is very cool, and works great in a live hall. Ryan did write a piece for amy last year, the work that I am premiering on monday is for Mezzo, two celli, flugel. I have taken out a DHD camcorder, and will be recording my recital. Hopefully I'll have it posted on youtube or something by mid-may.
Jer!
(also, I know the piece Amy commissioned is available from Ryan Purchase directly. It's very cool and I encourage you to contact him to get it directly. His website is
