Had a wonderful time performing at the Jazz Education Network Convention (JEN) in January with the Alan Baylock Jazz Orchestra! Some really great music and players in that band. JEN is a great organization for jazz musicians, jazz educators, and jazz lovers –  if you fall into one of those categories, you should consider joining. Check out their site at www.jazzednet.org.

Will be premiering a new work for baritone saxophone and piano at the North American Saxophone Alliance (NASA) Convention this coming March at Arizona State University in Tempe, AZ. The piece is titled “Fire and Ice” and is composed by a former classmate of mine from the University of Houston, Leonard Mark Lewis.
