#979 — Augmented four 纳城增四度

Hi everyone,

What an honor to be speaking on the Nashville Composers Panel with three of my heroes: Jeff Coffin (saxophonist of Dave Matthews Band), banjoist Béla Fleck and double bassist Edgar Meyer, moderated by Ryan Middagh (director of Jazz Studies at Blair School of Music at Vanderbilt University) as part of the International Society of Jazz Arrangers and Composers Symposium 2024.

There will be three evenings of fabulous concerts on campus. Check out the full schedule of the symposium here.

For friends in Nashville,

On May 19th Sunday, I am performing with chatterbird ensemble for their Aspiration: Live Music For Aerial Dance - a collaboration with contemporary dance company FALL. It starts at 7:30pm at Emerson Hall. Details and tickets are available here. Hope to see you there!

Have a wonderful weekend!
