Poetic Pioneers in Splendor

Playing premieres is one of my all time favorite things to do. This time the composers Michael Edwards and Hugo Morales came from afar to work on the pieces in Splendor a few days before the concert. A few major and minor changes were made and we launched the new music into the world.
