Anne McKennon,
Composer - Printable
Catalog Mostly, I
write the music I want to
write. I'm inspired by
what's around me, especially
nature and whimsy. I
believe in blooming where
I'm planted and focusing on
local musicians. It is
my sincere hope that people
will buy my scores, love
them, and play them.
If I'm lucky, my music will
live beyond my own
imagination. While I
don't pursue commissions,
occasionally those stars
will align. My
commission fee is $25
per voice per
minute.
Piano counts as 2
voices. News: *

Current
Project: Fanfare in the
Weeds (est 7-9 minutes) for Narrator
(optional) and Full Orchestra
(or subset thereof) - Instrumentation
Dedicated to
Dr. June Hammond whose
conversations helped inspire
this idea.
A narrated stroll through weeds
commonly found in southern lawns
(Clover, Crabgrass, Dandelion,
Dollarweed, Frogfruit) and their
nemesis, the HOA. (We
can't forget the HOA, can
we?) Each weed is
introduced and depicted in a
short fanfare. The
fanfares may also be performed
individually without narration
to introduce a concert. Suggestion:
Start each concert of the season
with a single un-narrated
fanfare. At the final
concert, play the entire series
with narration. Estimated
completion: TBD This
project is an evolving process
- details are subject to
change.
