Today was the opening day for the Symposium. Our host, Randall Faust, gave introductions and tributes, and led the WIU Horn Choir in a few tunes. The president of IHS, Jeff Snedeker, added tributes and thank-yous.

Our rising freshman, Daniel Terrebonne, jumped into the driver's seat for the ensemble masterclass led by Rick Todd, horn prof at USC and movie score hornist!

Up-and-coming horn craftsmen Jacob Medlin and Stuart de Haro are here-- I'm enjoying my Medlin "practice pipe!"

We enjoyed performances by Paul Basler, and Laurence Lowe.

Dinner was chinese family style! But slow, we missed the downbeat of the evening concert!

Wonderful evening concert with Jenny Dugle Kummer and Greg Hustis, and we found a pub with Blue Moon on tap!
