My uncle works in Japan, so my grandfathers now and then go there to help them with the kids and such. My grandfather is this very intelligent man, and he eventually learned origami - and he began to make tsuru birds out of every piece of paper we'd come cross. Legend has it that if you accomplish to make a thousand tsuru, you get a wish, he told me.
Yesterday I had this great idea of finally learning how to fold tsuru birds, and I will fold a bird for each solo piece I write, and I will write 1000 solo pieces, one for each tsuru.
I wrote yesterday a solo oboe piece that I sent Ren's way. The idea is to make them initially short (one page, one minute or so) and, should the interpreter like it and want to play it, develop it to four to six minutes. And by bringing this subject here, I want to open this invitation to all of you guys. I don't know if I will find a thousand musicians to write a piece for each one, but at least the first hundred or so should be personal.
I don't know if I should expect an avalanche, but bring it on
