Wind Ensemble Project (pt.VIII)

Zach Roberts, the tuba player with a million Hawaiian shirts, is gonna play "TranZendental Danse of Joi"! Zach played at Ohio Wesleyan on Chaos Theory, and at Ohio State on Courage & Compassion (he's the lone tuba player at the opening -- you'll hear it on the upcoming BCM CD). I'm totally jazzed to welcome him on board. Thanks for the call, Zach!

I finished going through all the parts last night -- the ones from the reading at Wheaton College on Monday. I was looking for any comments or indications the players might've made that'd revisions that might need to be made -- 80 sets of eyes are better than one! There were a few computer glitches that were pointed out, and one of the clarinetists drew an arrow to the title "TranZendental Danse of Joi" and wrote:

"Hooked on phonics"

I thought that was pretty phunny.

I think Zack should wear one of his Hawaiian shirts to the recording session. Seems appropriate for the piece!
