Wrapping up the intro

Yesterday, I finished composing the introductory section of Flit.  This section consists of twenty-two measures and sets up the thematic and some of the harmonic language to be used in this flute piece.  I even composed out a transitional bridge of six measures that leads into the next section of the piece.

With just over a minute's worth of music completed I feel as if this piece is coming together nicely.  My goal is to have this piece completed within three weeks so that I can send it to Greer Ellison and give her enough time to learn the piece before the August 13, 2011 concert of the Festival of Contemporary Music.  Otherwise I will need to find a different piece to program soon.
