WE Tour: Coming Soon Near You?

As some of you know, my grad assistant duties are divied up between an intermediate conducting class, coaching chamber music, and being an administrative assistant for the Baylor Wind Ensemble.

Sounds like a handful? Yep.

BUT, no complaining here! I love it and I'm thankful for the opportunity to be working on my Masters YAY!
(no sarcasm- serious!)

**Stopping this story to bring you the current news:

THERE WAS A SPIDER IN MY BED. CRAWLED RIGHT OUT FROM UNDER THE COVERS WHERE HE WAS APPARENTLY AT HOME, JUST TO SAY HELLOOOOO.

Don't worry, I jumped up REAL fast, said something I normally wouldn't, and then killed it REAL good.
And then I check the bed 5 times, shook out the sheets, checked the pillows, checked the bed again, checked the walls and floor around the bed, flailed a little bit, tweeted about it.....and sigh.

Alright, and I'm back to talk to you about the Wind Ensemble Tour (while I keep seeing things move out of the corner of my eye and feel creepy crawlies on my feet).

Baylor flutists 2012. Aren't they pretty???

The Baylor Wind Ensemble recieved the respected invitation to play at the national CBDNA conference this year in Greensboro, NC. Exciting!

This means we're packing up all 70-something people, their instruments/music, 8 days of clothing each, and hitting the road! Talk about a crazy scheduling process...

Anywho, we'll be traveling by bus through Little Rock, Nashville, Atlanta, Greenville, and Greensboro (and then all the way back to Waco) so if you are at/close to any of those locations it would be SUPER AWESOME if you decided to grab your family and friends and bring them to a concert! 

And then you could meet me ;)

Our schedule looks a little bit like this:
3/17/13- Little Rock, AR, Immanuel Baptist (morning service)
3/18/13- Nashville, TN, Schermerhorn Symphony Center (SO COOL!!!)
3/19/13- Atlanta, GA, Murray Arts Center
3/20/13- Greenville, SC
3/21/13- Greensboro, NC @ 8:00PM LIVE STREAM HERE

So I hope you will let me know if you are in the area! I may even be able to get some comp tickets for you ;)
Send your local family and friends our way, and feel free to link back to help advertise if you want to!


Do you live in our tour route? Will you plan to see us live or streamed online?

  2. Hahahaha. I'm the exact same way about spiders. I shuddered a little bit for you, actually.

    I have two cousins that lives in Atlanta that are like my sisters, and if for some reason I decide to go visit that weekend, I'll definitely check back with you!

  4. Congrats on your ensemble receiving such an amazing opportunity/invitation. I played the flute all through middle school and miss it so much.

    My reaction to spiders is the same. I can't sleep until I've checked every nook and cranny after spotting one.
