I've been continuing to prepare the music for my upcoming recital. Deciding to do the recital has given my practice focus it hasn't had in a long time. This is the program as it stands today:
- Bach Sonata No. 2, accompanied by James Predovich (harp)
- Flute Sonata, composed and accompanied by Jack Parton
- Faure Fantasie, accompanied by Ailene Albrecht
- The Elephant and the Fly, performed with Jack Parton (tuba), accompanied by Ailene Albrecht
- Variations on America, arranged by me, performed by WindCentric
I'll be traveling east in December to spend a weekend working with composer Jack Parton on his flute sonata, which he and I are premiering on the recital. It's thrilling to get to collaborate with a living composer on his own work.
I hope you'll all come support me and hear all my talented friends.
