Hi folks, I am happy to announce that I will be hosting a 2 day workshop, called "Horns By The bay," at San Francisco State University on the weekend of January 30 & 31, 2010. The hours will be 9-5 each day.
Guests will be Brian Fredericksen, long time assistant to Arnold Jacobs, Bill Kilingelhoffer, principal of the SF Opera orchestra, James Decker, legendary Hollywood player, and his Ivasi music system and Dr. Steven Gross of the University of California at Santa Barbara. I will also be doing some of my things, including a preview of my new book and DVD about Purposeful Practice, and conducting the horn choir. Admission will be $30 per single day or $50 for both days. This is going to be fun and full of interesting events and presentations. For example, Brian Fredericksen is going to be showing actual footage of Jacobs working with students and discussing his masterful thoughts on breathing and the psychology and musicality of performance. There are actually 2 different presentations plus a Jacobs panel discussion. Any wind player would be interested in this rare footage so I am probably going to make this available separately to people who want to come just for this. There will be a small admission charge for those who come just for that. So tell your wind playing friends. Rather than going into all of it here, I direct you to the web location below, where you can see more details and download a poster/ brochure/registration form. There are master class opportunities, so send in your registration ASAP with what you would like to play. http://wendellworld.com/html/HornDay.html There will be a schedule of events for each day up on my site soon. If you have any other questions you can email me personally or on this board. Sincerely, Wendell Rider For info about my book, DVDs and live video chat horn lessons, see my web site at www.wendellworld.com _______________________________________________ post: [email protected] unsubscribe or set options at https://pegasus.memphis.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
