Busy, busy, busy (part 2)
Apologies for the uncreative post title. It’s Friday, and my brain is slowly transforming into mush.
I’m keeping busy with my regular orchestra and subbing with other orchestras as needed. My brass quintet is taking a little hiatus this summer. We need to find another tuba player (anyone interested? 
).
I attended the Southeast Horn Workshop in Hattiesburg, MS, where I visited with friends and colleagues, heard some fine horn playing, and picked up some new music. Oh, and I took this photo of my horn:
Unfortunately, this is the only one I’ve posted since I had major work done on it (I hope to move the task of writing up a more comprehensive before and after post up farther in my ever-growing to-do list very soon). If you are interested in seeing (sort of) what my horn looked like before, check out this post.
While at the workshop, I picked up John Clark’s Exercises For Jazz French Horn and Joseph Singer’s Embouchure Builder for Horn. I’ll be using the latter this summer to get in shape for all of the summer playing I plan to be doing. I hope my new neighbors like horn.
