So for the past couple of weeks, I had been rehearsing with Dennis Fisher and the North Texas Symphonic Band to perform all of Richard Strauss's first Horn Concerto on this past week. My parents came into town, and my sister flew in from Hawaii to make it to this performance! I was so excited!
Then, late on Monday night, the weather turned a bit chilly. (Well, since I'm from southern Arizona, I think it was quite cold, but not the coldest I've been in.) Predicting lots of sleet/ice for Tuesday, 2/11, the University shut down, canceling that evening's concert. My performance being cancelled was disappointing, but it was even more disappointing that the weather ended up being pretty nice that day, the sun was even shining! Oh well.
Mr. Fisher has graciously allowed the Strauss to be rescheduled, and I'm planning to play it on Thursday, March 27th at 7:30 pm (central)! Weather permitting, of course. :) So, mark your calendars! This concert will stream online at www.UNTmusiclive.com or http://recording.music.unt.edu/live , and you can find this also in the Media/Links page of this site.
I've also got another big event on the near horizon: my Lecture-Recital is scheduled for March 4th at 6:30 pm (central)! I don't think I'll have streaming capabilities, but feel free to come watch and listen if you're in the DFW area, or just send me good vibes.
