I\u2019m now halfway through the first draft of the script, for the November workshop. It\u2019s been a while since my last blog and I\u2019ve had to make a few decisions along the way. Firstly I considered the musical language of the piece to reflect the time period as well as the style and the Scottish and American Influence in Carnegie\u2019s life. Luckily I was kindly pointed in the direction of a piece of music which was written for Carnegie\u2019s return to Scotland in 1862 by J Scott  and I hope this will appear in the show.<\/p>\n<p>The next choice to be made was how to tell the whole story and be able to move about within this to different points in Carnegie\u2019s lifetime.
