Many thangs is on my mind, words in the way
Submitted by Secret Society
So recently I’ve been fortunate enough to have received support from the following organizations, and I’d like to give them a public shout-out:
The Canada Council for the Arts approved my application to the “Grants to Professional Musicians (Individuals) - Non-Classical Music Program,” which has that snappy, rolls-off-the-tongue quality for which Canadian federal agencies are renowned. They are funding future compositional activities and study with Derek Bermel, which I am very excited about.
The Canada Council likes it when you put their logo on stuff so here it is:
Meet The Composer is supporting our May 8 record release hit at Galapagos and our June 5 appearance in Philadelphia via a MetLife Creative Connections Grant.
Meet The Composer also likes it when people look at their logo:
The American Music Center helped fund the premieres of “Jacobin Club” and “Obsidian Flow” at the Jazz Gallery on Dec. 12. We also recorded these tunes at the Infernal Machines sessions so you’ll be able to hear them when the record comes out (May 12).
The AMC expressed no logo-related preferences. But:
I am honored and grateful. The above organizations are all in there fighting the good fight, and I am very appreciative of their support.
