So here I am at Citta Scout Reservation wondering what in the Hell to do. My boss and my boss's boss left, and I happen to have some important keys in my possession. Oh well, I guess I'll just wait until 9 and look and listen. Anyway, today was a pretty good day, I got outside during this absolutely beautiful weather and finally was able to breathe ( Read more... )

So recently I was all over Ebay and since I don't have much else to do, I bought a couple of organ books, Bach, Franck, and various others. It's odd because while I can sight read fairly well, I don't have an organ to practice on. My mother keeps telling me if I get rid of the piano I can put an organ there. Sorry Ben, but you might be heading to a ( Read more... )

So I went to Monmouth's open house. And now I'm considering looking into music education. Sure there's almost no money in it, but why take a job you have no passion for? Either way, MU has a great music program, and of all things one of the professors is an organist. I asked him if he could use an organist and he said yes, although I would be ( Read more... )
