In Music and The Power of Sound, Danielou says that the Celtic modes are the same as the Spanish and North African modes, which suggests the migratory path. All traditional musics inhabit a similar modal space, as I demonstrated recently, but it's completely irrelevant whether I sing a leading role or not. Stop asking, and admit that you simply don't feel like I deserve to get paid for my songs alone. I'm not Muslim. I feel like most of those dudes should be. Bluntly, most show songs suck, but this is opera. Tunes win out over my liberal views. They'll definitely attempt to censor the play, but I'm sticking to my guns.. - I'm fairly serious about doing it in Melbourne or Canada. Depends on the workshop. Wellington's certainly not my preferred place to live atm, hence the fantasy show.
