What a great photo shoot today with photographer Gerry Szymanski!  Even though Hurricane Irene got in the way of our outdoor photo ideas, we got some nice natural lighting in Annex 901 and 902 at The Eastman School of Music.  You'll see these photos on our website in the near future.

This was our first weekend of rehearsals in preparation for the Luxembourg International Percussion Competition.  We worked on "Sun" by Baljinder Sekhon, "Rain Tree" by Toru Takemitsu and "Triade" by Heinrich Konietzny.  For only two days of rehearsals, we're making good progress.  
We'll be preparing 11 pieces for the competition, so we still have a lot of work to do!
