Hello all,

I am very sorry for the long break in writing. I know the purpose of a blog is to update regularly...I will make it my new years resolution to write regularly!!

So, exciting news...one of the new CDs has been finished, Beyond the Horizon Volume 2. I am really proud of this series because of all the pieces that have been commissioned for these. I am enthused by the great sales response and it encourages me to continue my efforts.

If you have not heard it yet, you can check out sound files at the following webpage:
Beyond the Horizon Volume 2. It features a number of great pieces: William Brusick's powerful and triumphant Concerto for Euphonium, the lyrical writing of Jiro Censhu's duet The Windows Open to the Ocean. As well as two pieces for the 2010 Falcone Competition: James Stephenson's Sonata for Euphonium, and Philip Catelinet's, Call of the Seasons. As well as young composer Martin Mikles charming work, The Journey Home. Featured last is a great friend of the euphonium, Scott Stewart on saxophone in Barbara York's Conversations for Saxophone, Euphonium, and Piano. I hope this is another fine addition to the growing repertoire and enlightens audiences around the world to the great new music for the euphonium.

And just before you ask, the motorcycle is NOT mine, but my brothers. It is a great looking bike indeed.

Well, heading off to Thailand for the Tubamania festival there. It will be great I am sure.
