Fantastic weekend in San Jose, at the largest Music Educators conference in California. I was honored to have the opportunity to present three sessions this year to capacity crowds.

I had a great time visiting the students of Cameron Miller at Rancho-Starbuck and working with three of his fine ensembles. Also, I was honored to be invited by Leonard Narumi to work with the orchestras of the North Torrance Youth Musicians Ensemble. What a treat to work alongside Don Gunderson, we had a blast! Coming in just a few days . . . .three sessions at CASMEC and guest conducting and a clinic with a Minnesota band!
