It generated a lot of post-event buzz amongst the teachers - some who had not realized what we had accomplished in those 44 minutes! I am eager to explore doing it again with not only this class but with some of the ensembles as well. Thanks for your support and assistance, and I am glad the FMEA presentation went well! Joe,

Doing the video conference with Brian Balmages was a real thrill, especially because I got to work again with this wonderful composer and great friend. I'm glad you were there to see it. The impetus for this activity was my own belief that there is an unnecessary disconnect between composers and the performers who play their music. Though I'm not a composer, and wouldn't dream of speaking for them, I have a feeling there are many composers out there who would be interested in joining classes virtually--especially those performing their music! Jay Dorfman Dr. Joe,

It was great to talk with you and the kids and answer any questions they have. It is also great to see that you, Travis, are already bringing these topics to light for the students at a young age. Well done. Joe, everything ran without a hitch. With you at the helm, that was obviously expected. 8^) rocketh on, jd Joe/Travis,

A handful of Seniors who were down in the band room as we were setting things up were disappointed they could not stay for the session with Jason. It was a really neat experience. Thinking about all that it took to make this happen today, I would strongly encourage any educator to give it a shot. It is a great experience for your students. Take care, and thanks again! Joe,
