Well I'm glad to say that I acutally got out of the house and did something today. Tomorrow I'm going to go around and do some more job applications. I need money...

I found a camp in Washington that Dale Clevenger teaches at...and he's like my horn idol so I'm definatly applying..and hopefully get accepted. It's only like two weeks long, but it will be worth it.

I'm currently watching the Vienna Philharmonic do their New Year concert that they do every year. I think it's funny that they are the only orchestra to play different style horns and oboes than everywhere else in the world. I don' know about the oboes, but the horns are single horns..with crooks to change the key, so transposing wouldn't be difficult...and they are piston valve while everyother horns are double F/Bb horns (meaning they play in the key of F and Bb simultainiously), with rotor valves (for you non horn-folk). Oh well, they still rock my socks off.

Well I hope everyone had a good New Years! School starts on Tuesday, hope you're all ready!!!
