Visiting Professor at Baylor University

A reunion 20 years in the making! Thank you, Wiff Rudd, Mark Schubert, and Baylor University School of Music, for a wonderful two days as a visiting professor in Waco! It was an absolute blast speaking to classes, coaching the brass quintet, and getting to hear the fantastic ensembles.

Almost 20 years ago, my dear friend Rachel and I went from Eastman to study with the legendary Tony Plog in Freiburg for the year. Rachel is now a professor of law at Baylor, so sharing this week with both of them, twenty years later, was amazing.

My thanks to the amazing Wiff Rudd for the invitation, and for the chance to speak to students about an important subject, the many paths you can take as a musician with your music degree.

Even when the power went out, rehearsal must go on: the quintet all had iPads, so we kept rehearsing! And of course, no trip to Waco is complete without a visit to the Dr Pepper Museum with Zoe and Jeannie!
