BASSOON INSTRUCTION AND PERFORMANCE

Filtering by Tag: bike

First Blog: hopefully to be followed by a second

So I've never been much of a blogger, but I do enjoy reading them. I'm gonna be honest, this blog won't be a blog completely devoted to bassoon and music related information. I am also an avid runner (marathon, half, 10k, 5k, hopefully an ultra within the next two years) and cyclist who also swims on occasion because I am trying my hand at triathlon. There will be a lot of bassoon information as well as reviews or recommendations of CD's, videos and whatever else I think will be interesting to me and beneficial to a reader. 

When I move to Houston I will also be embarking on a new path in the foster system. My sister is a foster parent and I will be moving in to help her with her endeavors as I build a teaching studio and work on building my career again as a freelancer. While names and pictures aren't allowed on the web, I will also be posting funny stories about Little Miss and me. Fun fact, I have never changed a diaper in my life, so that will be fun. Do clothespins on the nose actually work or is it just a funny TV gimmick? Feel free to drop any suggestions in the comments section. 

To finish things out, check out the animation for In the Hall of the Mountain King.
