Mass ACDA Summer Conference will feature Conductors' Boot Camp!

Breaking my radio silence to share news of the Mass ACDA Summer Conference, which looks quite good. I won't be there myself (gotta save those pennies for my upcoming move to IL!) but I definitely recommend it to others!

Last concert with Cantilena!

This coming Sunday, May 4 at 4 pm will be my final concert as the conductor of Cantilena! I have had such a wonderful time over the past five years with this dedicated, humorous, good-natured, talented group. I hope you will join me for my last concert with them, which is going to be a blast (and followed by delicious food!)

The program is called "Immovable Objects, Irresistible Forces: Songs of Human and Natural Wonders," and it's all about the different sorts of power we encounter in the world. We'll be singing Schubert's "Gott in der Natur," Carol Barnett's setting of Dorothy Parker's "Song of Perfect Propriety," an arrangement of Dvorak's "Largo" from his New World Symphony, Susan Borwick's bluesy interpretation of a speech by Sojourner Truth, and lots more. This concert has everything, so don't miss it! I would love to share this concert with as many people as possible. See you there!
