It is almost like an opera - it's so rich in it's storytelling. It's huge. In a way, it's the biggest I've written.
I would almost call it three concertos in one piece. I have a chart of eight different characters that I have arranged like a William Faulkner novel. There are many stories going on at the same time - you present one, move on to the next one, then return to another one. Every time a story returns, it has something new to say.
