Established Artist
ACHF Arts Access
My goal is to build relationships with musicians, schools and communities in two smaller Minnesota towns and provide their students, teachers and community members with musical opportunities to which they would not normally have access. I will be present at rehearsals and performances to gauge the reaction of the musicians, teachers, and audiences as to how this opportunity may have impacted them.
Through collaborating with conductors and young musicians in smaller high school settings, I was able to present my music to many students and listeners who had probably never met a living composer. I received very positive feedback from the students about the process of putting the music together, and the band even chose to perform the work again at commencement. I also received an audio recording which will help in promoting the work to there ensembles around the country.
