2 Down, Infinity to Go

Last Friday (November 9), I performed a "question and answer" recital at the Metro Christian Academy, in Tulsa OK. I was on stage for about 3 1/2 hours playing my repetoire and answering questions from the music students. And I have to say that I had a really great time up there. I didn't play very well (lot's of mistakes were made that cannot happen in Norman), but speaking to the kids and sharing my knowledge of marimba/percussion was unbelievably exciting! Here are some pics:



As you can see, I had fun. Well, maybe you can't see that I had fun, but just take my word for it :)



In other news, I recently performed on a departmental recital. The piece I played was entitled "Giles", and it is quickly becoming a loved piece for me. I got it recorded and put it on youtube. So here's the video. Enjoy!!


So that's about it for now. My next performance is at Southwestern Oklahoma State University on Friday, November 30. And then it's on to Norman!! So tell all your friends!!!!
