  1. Starting my last tour as a military musician today before I make the switch to being a music officer and focusing on conducting. A shortish one, nine days on the road near Toronto. Bittersweet. It’ll be a good one, though, we’re combining with our cousins from the East Coast and are going to put on one hell of a show next week. #musician #bass #doublebass #windband #windensemble #touring #military #caf #rcn

  3. And in other news, I suppose it's official now, seeing as I just sent off my acceptance. I'm doing my MMus in #windband conducting at the University of Victoria with Dr. Steven Capaldo starting this fall! It’s exciting and daunting, and it’s going to be a great time. #gradstudent #yyj #mmus #concertband #militaryband

  7. "Sleigh Ride" is a #light orchestra #standard composed by #LeroyAnderson. He formed the idea for the piece during a heat wave in July 1946, and finished it in February 1948. Its first performance was by the #BostonPopsOrchestra, with #ArthurFiedler conducting, on May 4, 1948. Anderson also made additional parts and arrangements for #windBand and piano.

  11. It’s been a while since I did a 20-hour day but damn it was a good one. Did the Formation #5k followed by an hour of #windband sightreading, then a rip to the ferry to Vancouver, a visit with my aunt, dinner with her and my son, and then 3 sets of #yachtrock downtown before a brief repose, breakfast with my son, and now back on the ferry home. #running #bass #doublebass #windensemble

  13. Oof. My brain is mush after playing six hours of #windband music today, but at least my hearing is in reasonable stead. My IEM rig worked well and hearing myself better (while not overplaying) made a massive difference. #bassist #doublebass #stringbass #bassplayer

  15. The 3DMEs are nice because I can dial in how much (or little) ambient sound I hear, so I can get a little more of the top end of my arco playing in Band situations, while still getting good fundamental via the DI. This looks quite promising for the future. #bassist #doublebass #hearingprotection #militaryband #windband #stringbass #bassguitar 3/3

  17. I’ve not had this productive a day in the practice room in a long time. I got the nod to play the 2nd Bassoon part in Gounod’s Petite Symphonie on double bass and it’s at once kicking my ass and validating. Nothing like reading and playing up the octave, and in tenor clef no less. #doublebass #chambermusic #windband #militaryband

  19. Ah, excellent. I just talked my way into sightreading a concert tonight with a #windensemble I used to play with about 20 years ago. Some wonderful old friends, and a bunch of music I’ve never seen before. Should be fun! #doublebass #stringbass #bassist #windband #concertband

  29. I've been using Pandora again for the first time in like a decade – David Gillingham is represented very strongly in my #windband station. Pandora is how I got into him back in high school, but it also makes me feel like Pandora doesn't have enough other concert band recordings licensed.

  31. Hi folks - I'm opening commissions via my Ko-Fi for a variety of musical and video services. Whether you're involved in an orchestra/band or a film/tv/video game production project, please feel free to check these out. ko-fi.com/storygirl/commission

    For the record, I'm doing this in the service of ending my poverty. I have a 9 month window of opportunity where I can earn some money before diving back into university and I'd love to earn that money doing fun things for the fun projects that fun people bring to the world. If you're doing something good and fun, I'm willing to put in some time without pay if it's something I can also reference for portfolio/credit purposes. I'm also happy to take on internship/assisting roles if there's a chance it will lead to paid work.

    Where's my people in these spaces? #Creative #Filmmaker #ScreenWriter #CommunityTV #Band #Orchestra #CommunityMusic #WindBand #Quartet #Quintet #Sextet #ChamberMusic #AvantGarde #GameAudio #VideoGameDev #TrailerEditor #FilmDirector #MusicSupervisor

    If you can't offer opportunities, it costs you 2 seconds to hit like and repost.

  34. In honor of Palm Sunday, here’s 5 Variants of Dives and Lazarus

    The tune is listed in our hymnal as Kingsfold and tied to No Tramp of Soldiers’ Marching Feet. Great piece.

  36. Richard Strauss -- Königsmarsch

    youtu.be/UdNPWf_ewAY?si=LB4Rb5

    Strauss wrote this march in 1906 and conducted its first performance the following year at a palace concert in Berlin for Wilhelm II.

    This performance took place in the Italian city of Toblach, which lies near the border with Austria; the performers are wearing Tracht because as well being citizens of Italy, they also belong to the South Tyrolean, Tyrolean, and the larger German speaking worlds.

    I listen to a little more wind band music than I used to on account of my children's participation in school wind bands. This piece appeals to me because Richard Strauss brings a richness and touch of lyricism to a genre that can all too often be just bombastic.

  37. Multi-part update, simply because I'm *that* interesting (insert sarcasm here)

    Work’s done for this calendar year. I feel less destroyed by it than I have in years past, in spite of ongoing BS and rehashing of traumatic events from a couple years ago. Working at it. Slowly. Next year could be exciting, could be frustrating. Who knows yet. #militaryband #windband #bassist #leadership #rcn #caf 1/x
