60. Dan Forrest: Composing and Marketing Major Works
I'm very excited for today's episode! Joining me is composer Dan Forrest to talk about everything that goes into composing and marketing a major or multi-movement work a.k.a. one that's much longer than a typical composition or arrangement.We tend to focus on those shorter pieces of music on this show, because that's normally the place for aspiring composers to start. But, as you'll soon hear, those larger works have their place and there's a lot to be gained from writing them.We of course got into publishing as well. Dan has a fantastic perspective as someone who's both a composer and an editor and also as someone who's chosen both traditional and self publishing for his works, making him the perfect type of guest for this show!
