Finishing off a great two weeks of SFA Summer Band Camps. It’s always rewarding to see the kids improve through their time here and even better when they return year after year building on what they learned last year. Now for a few weeks of rest before summer 2 session starts!
Excited to join The Four Horsemen Tuba Euphonium-Quartet! Our debut performance was at the 2018 Midwest Regional Tuba-Euphonium Conference in Ft. Wayne, IN. Plenty of cool performances and recordings coming.
You can check it out online at http://www.music.sfasu.edu/stream.php . Hope to see you all there or online!
