branching out....scary

the last year has been one of branching. and will continue this year. last year in addition to piano and saxophone i learned clarinet and oboe. i had about three months to do so. i was invited to be in the pit orchestra for the fall musical... but i had to learn two new instruments... i now play oboe in concert band because our oboe player moved away. this year i will be adding flute to my list.




i've also taken up voice lessons. so i'm now a music nerd not just a band geek. (i will not be changing my blog title)(i like being a band geek)




i auditioned for the spring play: alice in wonderland. i auditioned for the chesire cat. i unfortunately did not get the part. i did however get the role of Gryphon. a little known character. for more information please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gryphon_(Alice)








to the right is the gryphon and alice listening to the mock turtle, another lesser known character. for info follow the links in the previously named link
i do promise to keep my blog updated...(at least i will try.)
