Big step forward today. I didn’t finish ACC6, but I did make substantial changes to one section, which will make this movement sit more comfortably alongside the rest of the piece. Basically, there’s a big solo section at the end which is heavily influenced by Bulgarian folk music, and I’ve changed it to fit better with the big solo section towards the end of ACC2. It’s still got the same feel, but i can just lift the work from the other movement and drop it into this. Unfortunately this meant I didn’t actually finish this movement today, but I went for a walk in the Phoenix park instead, which is twice as nice. Tomorrow morning I’ll be back at it.
I also knocked together a simple little set of responses for men’s voices in between things.
