”The Teeth of Moloch” by Houston Dunleavy

Moloch's boys are hard men. And he's not very nice himself. But who is left to stand against him? Ulster-born Houston Dunleavy is Senior Lecturer in Composition in the School of Music and Drama at the University of Wollongong. Since 1985, he has pursued a national and international career as a composer and conductor. Now, it seems, he can also write words. Houston was Guest Artist at The American University in Washington D.C., and Visiting Composer at James Madison University, The Cleveland Institute of Music, Ball State University, the University of Florida’s Florida Electro-acoustic Music Festival, Georgia State University, The University of Southern Florida, The Albert Roussel Festival, The Delaware New Music Festival, and the Aurora Festival. This is the first time anyone has asked him to write something that didn’t have music in it.
