Hey all. I’ll be taking a break from socials for a week. There will be a #shortsaturday this week, but with everything going on and the years long friendships I’ve had to cut off, I think it’s time to touch some grass. Stay safe and protect yourselves out there.

This is the second time since I’ve been at UVU that someone has brought a gun to campus with the intent to do harm. When does it stop? When do we say enough? I don’t care if it’s Charlie Kirk or Barack Obama. It’s wrong and has to end.

It’s tome for some Berlioz! Fun fact: the Hungarian
March was written for two Ophicleides, the spiritual ancestor of the tuba. Which explains why this excerpt is SO FREAKING HIGH. #Tuba #Berlioz #RomanticMusic

You know, days like today make me think of how great we had it under President Obama. He was intelligent, witty, capable, and most importantly, not a military dictator, unlike some people I know… oh, by the way, very unhappy birthday 47. #nokingsinamerica

It’s #Tubatuesday! Here’s the etude I was working! Unfortunately, it is a bit under tempo, but it couldn’t be helped! For being done in the exercise room, it actually sounds pretty decent! #etude #tuba

It’s Tuba… Saturday?! So, I’ve been working on excerpts from symphonic repertoire, and I wanted to share them, but they’re all pretty short, so I figured it would be an excuse to start manipulating YouTube’s shorts function! So starting today, we have #ShortSaturday! #tuba #gershwin

So today I found out that no matter what my set up is, my phone speakers just HATE to play tuba! That’s ok though! Here’s another #tubatuesday! Apologies for nine last week, something borked the video and it refused to work, so I had to re-record.

Hey everyone! This is a little different of a work from me (it’s not just a tuba!) I worked on this piece for the better part of two years. It started life as a chamber brass work, but evolved into something much bigger as time went on. Let me know what y’all think!
