January Portland Trip

Hannah and I are looking forward to a very productive week in Portland, OR filled with rehearsals, music videos, guest-artist lectures, mock auditions, and a concert. It shouldn’t surprise me anymore how much we are able to pack into a week together. In addition to the rehearsals and practicing, we also plan to check a bunch of paperwork items off the list. Hannah will still teach her University classes during part of the week.

We are excited to add some lovely, new-to-us pieces to our rotation of concert repertoire:  Amy Beach’s Romance, Op. 23, and William Grant Still’s “Suite for violin and piano.” Such fun music!
