Work on my first symphony...

For about 6 months now I've been working on a large orchestral piece. I've written for many ensembles in the past and love to write for large groups, but this is my first for a full symphony. I've been trying to write something akin to a 1940's movie murder mystery, told entirely with music. So far, things are progressing very nicely. Once it's done, the hard part is getting someone to perform it, but I'll just have to cross that bridge when I get there. I'll post some samples in later posts.
