For those that don't know about this...it is one of the largest band clinics around the world and features so many performances and clinicians and new instruments...it is amazing.
So far it has been a great euphonium scene. While we haven't chatted with everyone, here are list of people that are here performing, teaching, exhibiting, etc: Demondrae Thurman, Brian Bowman, Roger Berhend, Gail Robertson, Lance LaDuke, as well as a few IEI alum...Mark Carlson and Jamie Lipton and Matthew Mireles and a have gotten to meet a number of enthused high school and college euphonium and tuba players.
This is a really cool scene and I also just listened to the Chicago Brass Section concert and they were once again AMAZING!! Obviously, words can not communicate their skill, finesse, musicianship, and intensity, but certainly one of the highlights of concerts I have attended in my life so far.
Well, off to see more people!!
Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year!!
