Percussion Retreat in June

My professor Lynn Vartan decided that it would be a fun idea to get people together during the summer and have a percussion retreat. She was right it was a blast we had two of her students from Suu (me and Joe) along with three students from California come and enjoy this week of playing music and having fun. The week consisted of three private lessons (in which i learned and memorized a new piece which for those who know me know that the memorizing part was a huge accomplishment.) Three master Classes where we play for each other and get feed back and talk about issues such as how to promote ourselves and further our education. We also worked on several ensemble piece that we recorded together at the end of the week. So much Fun!


Along with working hard we took a day to see some interesting and beautiful things around cedar city.






Our first stop was stoping around Cedar Breaks. It was a beautiful day for this.








Lynn, Aime, Kat, and Megumi ( I am not sure how she spells her Name)



Next we found our way over to the Parowan Gap which i had never heard about before but it turned out to be a really cool Site.







Needless to say we had a great week and look forward to doing this in years to come.
