Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine receiving the Wildcatter Award for Creativity. Never did I imagine my book, The Telling Image: Shapes of Changing Times, to be the inspiration for an original musical score with animation. Yet that is what ROCO, River Oaks Chamber Orchestra, has done. The commissioned music and animation had its world premiere at Miller Outdoor Theater in Houston, Texas, on Friday, Sept. 29th, 2023. All of these events fill me with wild gratitude.
I’m excited to share the music and animation for the event from ROCO: Tectonal by Anthony DiLorenzo (composer) & Cynthia Wong (animation).
