Wow! I'm just as happy as surprised for being chosen as the winner! I was honored just to have been selected as a finalist among these other three great pieces.
I am very happy that I managed to convey at least some of the things I was trying to express, all the way from my living room in Stockholm, Sweden, to benxiwf's students in Pennsylvania!
This means a lot to me as it will be my first piece getting performed, at least in this field of music and without me participating.
I am of course also very interested in a recording of the performance, as well as eventual recordings from the read-trough and upcoming rehearsals! And please forward any feedback from the students. I am very interested in what they have to say about it, regarding everything from the piece as a whole to notation and layout.
Thank you for choosing me!
