Saturday's coming

So the exhibition went as well as an exhibition would, especially after 6 hours of practice. So far we have had 2 good practices this week and are planning to have another one on Thursday. I feel like we are starting to find our groove as far as making our practices productive. If I haven't said it before, I'll say it now...my staff at Newberry was great. Kevin, Dianne, and Heather were awesome and we've become close friends after working together those 4 years. My staff at Swansea is pretty fantastic too and I'm really enjoying working there. We've got some things to iron out and we still have a little ways to go on the show but if we keep going like this we can make this a successful season. Also my moment of the day...I've commented the past few practices about one of my freshman trumpet players and how she knows her music and plays well but we just need to work on her tone a little. She came up to me at the end of class today and asked what she could do in order to be a better player and have a better tone. That's one of those rare moments and I just had to share.
