A Week in ChicagolandMonday, October 12th, 2009Sitting in the airport – O’Hare is a place I’ve come to know quite well, but this time I arrive almost two hours early for my flight! It’s a bit too crowded to practice at the gate, so I’m glad I have my laptop as a carry-on. I had a lot of fun this week in Chicago. It was surprisingly cold for October, but most of the activities I engage in are inside anyway, and the hotel room temperature knob and I have become fast friends. The level of intensity around the engagement was enough to keep the blood flowing at a good rate, too! There were television interviews on ABC 7 Chicago and Chicago Tonight (WTTW/PBS – where I performed Julie-O by Mark Summer as well as the Prelude from the 1st Suite by J.S. Bach) , along with the Sun-Times interview I had done before arriving in Chicago. Following the TV airing of Julie-O there was enough positive feedback that I ended up playing it as an encore after both nights’ performances, with the addition of J.S. Bach’s Sarabande from the 1st Suite on the second concert. Fun stuff! PeruWednesday, September 2nd, 2009Hello! I am writing this from my apartment in New York – fresh off the heels of my first trip to South America and less than a day before heading out to the West Coast. The trip to Lima, Peru (including a short visit to the Amazon Rainforest) was one that was multi-faceted and inspirational in so many ways. Radio ShowsThursday, July 30th, 2009Hello! Just a short note… I was recently sent some interviews from a concert with the Seattle Symphony back in May, these are both with KING FM. Town Hall Seattle, New Projects, and Summer FunFriday, July 3rd, 2009Phew! Just finishing up another hot day without air-conditioning on the farm in Oklahoma—this week has been a welcome quasi-break after the last couple of months. Waterskiing, wakeboarding, practicing cello in front of the family and just hanging out was exactly what I have needed to get reset and ready for the hard-working summer ahead. I’ve just added a couple of the upcoming dates to the calendar but most of the work to do is off-schedule. Welcome and Some NewsSunday, May 17th, 2009Hello! Welcome to my new website! And… to my brand-spanking-new blog. I’ll be posting news updates, items about special events and concerts, and random thoughts here from time to time. Perhaps even some musings on the cello and things of a musical nature! |
