Christmas Break!

Well, I’ve successfully finished my 7th semester of undergrad work at BJ. What a semester it has been, too! Last weekend I successfully passed my note check for my senior piano recital! What a relief… Now I must practice hard for my actual recital check (in which everything must be perfect) which comes one month before my recital. My recital check will be around the first week of February, and my recital is March 6, 2009. More info on that forthcoming.

This semester I also wrote my first-ever SATB choir piece for my choral composition class. Even though I was working frantically to finish portions of it before various deadlines in the class, I believe it turned out rather well. Now I need to do some tweaking of it, and maybe find somebody to sing it…

Over Christmas break, I’ll be keeping busy with a number of things. Piano practice for one (gotta keep on top of that repertoire). I’ll also work on compiling a portfolio of my musical compositions to submit for grad school. Hopefully, I will be able to get my graduate degree in Composition. I’m going to have to write an entirely new piece to include in this portfolio. I have an idea for what it might be, too…

I’ll also be working over Christmas break, and hopefully doing some re-organization of my web design business. BTW, if you know of anyone needing a website, send them my way.
