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.

About Me

My Photo
Name:
Location: Marietta, Georgia, United States

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.

Best Wishes for the Holidays

Our students performed beautifully on December 6th. Congratulations to Citlaly Serrano and Khalil Ansari on their respective solos! Mrs. Ledford ran the reception exceptionally well, and the cider, cookies and cake went fast. Now we begin to prepare for semester playing and written finals, as well as preparing for our Festival performances in February at McEachern. Thank you for your continued cooperation in maintaining the success of our orchestra program. I hope no one minded my tribute to my mentor, the late Dan Hanna of DePauw University. He truly was a remarkable man; I wish you all could have known him.
