Summer

So today is the day before Michelle leaves to go to Japan, which is a bummer. Though I will be spending the night at her house today, so that's not too bad. After that, I'm spending a few more days here in Troy and then heading back to Holland. Hopefully we'll get our contracts for HSRT soon so I can start practicing and whatnot. I'm excited to start this season, I haven't played bass for them before so it will be exciting!

In other news, I'm continually working on my band piece. It's taking longer than I expected, but handwriting everything is necessary, thus the long time it will be taking. I want to get this done within the next couple months or so, though, so if I decide to go to grad school for composition (which is what I'm leaning towards) then I can have a couple contrasting pieces (this band piece, and a marimba/vibe duet) to show them. I also have some small ideas for a cello solo, which I'll probably try to flesh out in the semi-near future and perhaps have a third piece to show off. Hopefully they won't require recordings because that might pose a problem.
