I think the best part of rehearsing a cycle of water-themed music is the endless waves of metaphor… 🚰🌧🧊🫧🌧🌊 Loved working on "Liquid" by Jay Bocook with the @gfbla Concert Band!

I am supremely proud of the @gfbla Concert Band (and Marching Band!) for a stellar performance this Sunday for our concert, FLOW: Rain, River, Sea. I had such a great time conducting this show, especially since it had some personal favorites like Molly on the Shore and the Moldau. It’s a privilege to make music with such a dedicated and expressive band!
