I have just listened to your Magnum Opus. Quite frankly, it’s a goddam masterpiece. I don’t even know where to start in my praise of your creation: raucous, groovin’, lyrical, baroque, moving, funny. Well I guess that is a start after all. If I can get my interpretative faculties around the CD I will review it for the northern California paper I write for.

A Little Extra won first place in the 2008 WCS International Song Competition in the Miscellaneous (unconventional/other) category.

Award-winning mastermind and musical composer Cory Cullinan releases a one-of-a-kind over 10 minute long landmark achievement in experimental music. Called Footprint, the song features a hallucinatory mix of sounds including chirping birds, ocean waves, dropping water, wind, haunting soundscapes and combustable rhythms…

Thank you for this beautiful piece and the comfort it has given me in knowing I’m not alone.

Beautiful song. It brought up all sorts of emotions and memories in my own life and loss.

This is absolutely beautiful. It may have accounted for some moisture in my eyes…..Thank you. It is wonderful!

It is impossible not to admire and enjoy Cory’s innate gifts and his ability to put so much musical craftsmanship, flare and beauty both simple and complex onto a single CD.

Cullinan discovered music as a teenager to find solace in the loss of his brother and dad. He found it to communicate his feelings and connect with others during a moment of crisis. Cullinan said the Los Altos community tookhim in during this time and showed him what it means to be in a family and how to listen to others.

Through all of his artistic endeavors, Cullinan delivers a pro-music message that is creative, educational and fun.

They sound great!  Wow, what a huge, colorful, production with about a million moving parts to it!  Many thanks for the opportunity for the Chorale folks to take part in it!
