One very exciting thing that happened this week that I have yet to mention in the blog world is some music news. I am going to be a performed composer for the fourth time in my life. GoldDiggers is about to make it's comeback as a new and improved version, performed by Ogallala High School. Mr. Schlake took some time to look through the piece and talked me through a few range issues (because a clarinetist like me doesn't know that a certain progression of notes is near impossible on the french horn. I assumed everything was near impossible on the french horn.).
I have been very fortunate to have willing band directors open to subjecting their students to an untested piece of music. I am very fortunate to have such talented kids play my piece and I am so, so excited to hear it live in April.
