January Happenings

Well the new semester has begun. I am teaching Class Piano 111, and 112. My four students in the Piano Pedagogy Labratory Program are preparing for State Testing which is coming up at the end of February and begining of March. I played the first movement of Beethoven's Third Piano Concerto in The University of Michigans Concerto Competition, at the end of December. I didn't advance in the competition, but it was a good experience, and only the second time I have performed since having my defibrilator implanted. I also performed Be Still My Soul, also known as Finlandia at The Ann Arbor Stake Relief Society Fireside on Jan. 21st. It has been a busy stretch. My website continues to recieve more visitors. I have also tried setting up a Myspace Music page to try and get more exposure with the younger crowd, but it could use some work. I will try to improve it.
