Arrival at TMEA
Flew into a surprisingly cold San Antonio last night. Connected in Dallas/Ft. Worth – had to be the coldest airport I’ve ever been in.
Hung out at the Hyatt bar for a bit last night, fun chatting with composers Frank Ticheli and John Mackey. Had to leave though pretty quickly as trying to get a cocktail waitress for some food and drink proved impossible. The Marriot Riverfront had plenty o’ servers to maintain our margaritas.
I’ll be attending some of the 4A Symphonic Band rehearsals today – the ensemble will be opening their program with my new work “Rio’s Convergence.” Come by and find me either there or at the J.W. Pepper booth (who is selling the work at the convention). I’ll be at the Pepper booth on and off through the convention – stop by and say hello!
