November

I will play a couple of the Five Pieces for Solo Oboe by Antal Dorati at CSU's OboeRAMa in Fort Collins!

Joe Robinson will be in attendance after his performance of the Strauss Concerto the evening prior. Check out the official IDRS announcement for more information.

September!

The CD release party on August 28 was a HUGE success, and I am pleased to announce that you can now purchase "Summer Play" online! Tell all of your musician friends to add this album to their library!

The Mountain Music Duo continues to be active in September with an appearance at Regis University and a full recital at Front Range Community College in Westminster. I highly encourage attending the Steamboat Springs Orchestra concert this month; the drive will likely be beautiful with changing fall colors, and we are playing Beethoven's wonderful but infrequently performed Fourth Symphony!

The Mountain Music Duo performs on a Regis University faculty recital at the Berkeley Community Church, 50th and Meade in Denver.
