Harmony for Humanity

The purpose of this blog was to keep students, their families, and my friends aware of what is going on in my professional life. As I begin my retirement, the purpose will change.

I grew up in a wonderful town, Harvey, Illinois and had wonderful music teachers; I attended a number of universities, but DePauw and Loyola had the most impact on me. I enjoy finding old friends from New Orleans now, especially after H. Katrina.

Exciting Opportunity

I have requested volunteers from the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra to visit this Fall and help our Advanced students. We have never done this before, and I am interested in their opinion of what we are doing in the classroom, the music we perform, etc. I will let you know when something more definate happens. ONLY ONE MORE WEEK before school starts! Don't spend too much during the TAX FREE Holiday! Also, go to GMEA.org and find out the All-State etude for this year; it never hurts to start early, especially if you aren't able to take private lessons.
