April Showers





As March comes to a close, I finally have a slow week to reflect on the massive showering of great news happening right now. Mike and Abby's wonderful baby Elijah was born, Ali's 30th bday was a blast and our engagement is so exciting, little Liz turned 29, Ali survived her first trial-by-high-school-music-festival, and my 4th Recital was great fun. All fantastic successes that I'm so happy about. 

After going strong for the last weeks, it's great to finally stay up late listening to Miles, drink some whole foods bordeaux and regroup.

A few things coming up on the performance calendar:

April
Sunday 4/5/09
Choir Cantata by Lloyd Larsen at Good Shepherd Lutheran in Irvine

May
Saturday 5/9/09
Mahler's 5th Symphony with the San Bernardino Symphony

Sunday 5/17/09
Claremont Winds Concert in Baldwin Park

Trumpet Ensemble

The first rehearsal of the full boar trumpet ensemble was tonight. I foresee something fun with this group, perhaps a once a month reading session?
