My Favorite Recordings

Shenandoah by Frank Ticheli

I love this recording.  Watch the video starting at 1:09.  These are High School students!  P.S. Are they reading music?? 

Music that made me want to be a music teacher

I played this piece when I was in High School and had goosebumps the whole time.  I was in the 2007 All-State Wind Ensemble.  This experience helped me to decide to dedicate my life to becoming a music teacher. I wanted students to feel what I felt when I played this music.
