sinuous melodies in wold's girl

Erling Wold's latest CD, A Little Girl Dreams of Taking the Veil has gotten a rave review in the San Francisco Chronicle. And, best of all, the reviewer, Joshua Kosman, mentioned Sub Pontio Pilato. Let's hope he likes SPP as well. Girl is based on a libretto which Wold adapted from a Max Ernst collage book, and it has been performed in San Francisco (two times), Klagenfurt, and Brühl. My friends, Angelika Mollenhauer and Ralf Dietl, translated the original French text into German for the European performances. It's a beautiful composition.
