The serious and sometimes satirical reflections of a priest, poet, and pilgrim —
who knowing he has not obtained the goal, presses on in a Godward direction.
Solo Sonata a minor (1974)
The "Sherlock Holmes" sonata, written and first performed backstage when I was acting in the Royal Shakespeare Company revival of the William Gillette play at the Broadhurst) and had lots of time on my hands (didn't enter until Act I Scene 3) and a willing violinist (who provided the offstage live sound of Holmes' fiddling).
Four movements: Andante - Fuga - Largo - Allegro

“a clear-sighted companion.... If you are passionate about the vitality of today’s church, I encourage you to accompany him on his mystagogical excursion into the liturgical landscape. You will rediscover a familiar place rife with fresh provisions planted by the God who longs to feed our deepest hungers and hopes.” —Jay Koyle, chair, Faith, Worship and Ministry of The Anglican Church of Canada

Tobias - thank you for this. Much like the Emmaus music, this moved my heart deeply.
I was clicked into this and was listening and openened another window to read a moving post at another blog.
Your music was the perfect thing when reading that post.
God is so very good indeed.
Wow - wonderful!
Tobias, I am so grateful that Fran linked me here. Your music was a wonderful gift to receive this Saturday morning. Thank you for that soaring, evocative piece.
Thanks Fran for pointing me to Ruth. I left a comment at her blog about the richness of weeping...
What can I say that's new? Nothing, except that I loved the sonata.
Tobias, I must point people here. One does not put a light under a bushell.
Pax my brother.
