News!

Updates may have been infrequent since commencement, but there are big things on the horizon, including a move to Music City, USA (Nashville, that is). But first things first:

I am a semi-finalist for the American Prize in Choral Conducting in the Collegiate division! Click on this paragraph to see the announcement.

This is exciting for several reasons. There are only two students in the semifinals of the collegiate division (it is for conductors of collegiate choirs, not college student conductors), and I am the only masters student in here. The rest are actual established faculty at their schools. Even cooler is the fact that my colleague Brandon Elliott is there in the Community division with his group, Choral Arts Initiative. A 100% showing for CCM's MM class! There's also a DMA wind conducting student nominated in his area - go Bearcats!
