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!

Jericho, for horn and piano

My friend, our new theory/comp guy, Gabe Miller, has whipped up an Eastern-influenced theme and variations for me to premiere at the Mid-South Horn Workshop at the University of Memphis in a few weeks. Its modal melodies make me think of veiled women and a holy army bringing down the walls of Jericho with a mighty blast on seven shofars!
