Symposium next week!

We’re just one week away from this year’s Wind Conducting Symposium! Emails have been sent to all Performers for Saturday and Sunday afternoon’s wind ensemble labs. We are still in need of one more horn for both Saturday afternoon and Sunday afternoon, and I could also use one or two more trombones on Saturday. Please contact me or just send interested players to this site to register.

Workshop next month!

Do you love to perform in these lab ensembles, but are just not quite ready to take the plunge and conduct? For the second year, on July 23-25, I will be running a clinic that is just for you. Instrumental Music Education: Real-World Solutions for Improving Your Ensembles will focus on Social-Emotional Energy in Rehearsals, Score Study Techniques, Repertoire Ideas, Technology Strategies, and a post-Undergrad Conducting Boot Camp. If you are need of a shot in the arm, but are not quite ready for conducting at a symposium, this is for you! Download an information/registration flyer here. This is sponsored by the Northern Valley Staff Development Consortium. A reduced rate is available for music education undergrads.
