Kudos to Dan Forrest. I didn’t really know him that well, but we were in at least one music theory class together in college. Apparently he needed the class less than I, because he just beat out John Rutter for first prize in the John Ness Beck award for outstanding selected sacred choral anthem. No mean feat when you consider the quality of some of Rutter’s compositions and arrangements.

This is cool! I have to credit you for scooping my brother on this one. He called to tell me about it yesterday, but I’d already seen the post on your blog.
Ha ha. On the thread he started at SharperIron, someone posted a link to an MP3 of the piece. It’s nice.

Mad props, kudos, and all manner of huzzahs to former and soon-to-be BJ faculty member Dan Forrest. He beat John Rutter, arguably the king…
