WATERCOLORS update

So it's been a few days since I've talked about my Texas commission, WATERCOLORS... but that's not to say I haven't been working on it!

(for the unenlightened, WATERCOLORS is a collection of 5 short sketches for concert band, all based on water themes. Reflections in a Tidal Pool is one of them...)

I finished another movement, but not the tentatively titled Raindrops Hang on a Spider's Web -- I was not happy with that one... I finished another one that I'm calling Cast Adrift on a Stormy Sea -- it's very big and dark and bombastic and it swings on a very long pulse (like a big ship being tossed by huge waves). So what do we think of THIS title...? Anybody have any other ideas?!?

Great title, methinks. My favorite so far.

Also, it's worth noting that "bombastic" is a wonderful word - bravo. ;)
