| « November Update | September Update » |
I am SO SORRY it has been a month since I have written. I will try to be better, but October had me traveling A LOT!! A residency in Texas with JD Salas at Stephen F Austin as well as a 2 week tour to Washington and Oregon.I performed with the Cascade Symphony Orchestra in Edmonds, WA to an incredibly enthusiastic audience. The really cool thing was that a local radio host for KING FM presented the pre-concert lecture and he was so enthused after the concert. The next two days he used tracks from Majestic Journey and Taking Flight as his choice fill-in music on the station. He hopes to do more in the future. Please send a message to the radio station that you enjoyed the euphonium programming, so they are enthused to do more in the future!!
Also during the WA and OR trip, I presented a few master classes and concerts at University of Oregon (Mike Grose), Portland State University (Jatik Clarke), and the University of Puget Sound (Ryan Schultz, who is a new father, and Robert Taylor). Lastly, I did spend some free time on my 1 day off to go to Mt. Rainer (not the top) and hike a little as well as do some geocaching. A fun new distraction perhaps.Well, I have lots to catch up after being gone for too many days.
Until next time,
Adam
