Jeanne d'arc au bûcher

It's exciting. The Baltimore Symphony Orchestra has given me my first paid writing commission—about their forthcoming concerts of Arthur Honegger's oratorio, Jeanne d'arc au bûcher.  What a fascinating exploration (in the midst of mounds of reading and writing for the two courses I am doing for my MFA this semester) of her life and artistic inspiration!Here's the link to the BSO website:http://www.bsomusic.org/main.taf?p=0,1,38
