Beautiful time in Saskatoon performing and teaching at the Prairie Music Residency. Many thanks to William Martin who ran an excellent event! I made some new friends and got to work with coductor, Joe Parisi, who continues to be an inspiration to me! I played a recital, taught two masterclasses, ran some sectionals and played 3 solo pieces with the brass band. It was loads of fun and I really enjoyed my time in Saskatoon!
In July, I spent 2 weeks in Finland with Seraph Brass. We rehearsed in Helsinki and then traveled to Lieksa to take part in the Lieksa Brass Week. We played two full recitals and coached many chamber groups.
The summer started with the Prizm International Chamber Festival in June. I taught and performed at this event with my colleagues in Lantana Trio. We had a blast in Memphis and I finally got to see Beale Street and eat some great Memphis BBQ!
