This Month Kicked of the ANNUAL JSU HONOR BAND.
This is ONE of MY FAVORITE EVENTS OF THE YEAR.

Students from throughout the South Arrive on Campus for a Weekend of Making New Friends and Music. Special for Me- is Seeing Some of Our Former JSU Students that are Now Successful Music Educators Bring Their Most Talented Students for US to Work With. It Warms My Heart to See Their Success and Catch Up.

This Year as a SPECIAL PRESENTATION Raffe Reeds (That’s ME!) Partnered with Clara Vargas from Scorpio Reeds to Offer Band Directors a Special Clinic on the Starting Students Successfully on the Double Reeds.

A Few Band Directors that Missed the Event Asked if There Were Online Resources They Could Access. SO I HAVE POSTED OUR HANDOUTS IN THIS BLOG. This Means there is ONE LESS PAPER ON YOUR DESK! If You’re Like Me This Means, I Won’t Lose It in the CHAOS! 😉
Hopefully You will Find the Handout Helpful in Your Own Double Reed Journey.
HAPPY BASSOON-ING EVERYBODY!
