2012 WCS Wrapup

A big note of thanks!

Thank you to everyone – performers, auditors, and conductors – who attended this year’s Wind Conducting Symposium. I am grateful to the members of the Westchester Symphonic Winds who played the sight-reading clinic on Friday night. And Dr. Thompson and I agreed that Saturday & Sunday’s lab ensembles were two of the best ever.

Congratulations to the conductors for their courage to prepare and attend this workshop. Thank you to Kyle Kubicki, librarian; Allison Beckley, transcriber; Louis Alloro, guest speaker; and Dr. Mallory Thompson, our clincian. And, thank you to our sponsor, the Music Educators of Bergen County, Inc., Brian Timmons, President.

By subscribing you will get news updates about next year’s event. Stay tuned!

I’ve reassembled all of the photos I took over the weekend into one slide show, below. What a handsome crew! Thank you again!
