Temperaments






On Sunday, I presented my lecture on learning to recognize Keirsey's Temperaments in your horn students, and how to teach to each type in the horn studio. Surprisingly, every seat was taken, as it was at 9 am and a partial conflict with the horn choir rehearsals. LOTS of lively discussion ensued!

This morning I enjoyed a lecture demo with Marcia Spence and Simon Sargon. I'll be doing some of Sargon's A Clear Midnight with Shawn Roy and Chan Kiat soon!

We had our first horn choir rehearsal, and we'll rehearse two more times between now and our performance Saturday afternoon.

The afternoon concert featured modern works, and Rossini T&V.

This afternoon, money was spent on sheet music- lots of money!

The evening concert featured Anrew Pelletier as the star of the show!
