Today, it is a beautiful day here in Laredo, Texas. I have decided to start a blog for those who would like to know what is going on. Actually, even though it is a Sunday, much is happening. Between doing laundry, house cleaning, running errands, and hopefully getting a bit of writing done, it is just a normal day. LOL. Oh yes, we have mass to go to later.
It is such a beautiful day that Willie, my 14 year old son, and I went to play tennis this morning. Then, our family (Felisa, Willie and Tammy) went to lunch with my Mother in law. Today is a day to celebrate Willie making the junior high all region band. So, we all went to Olive Garden. This was Willie's choice.
One of my main goals today, besides the above mentioned, is to get my newest recordings and scores ready to submit for publication. I will be sending several recordings done by some outstanding college bands. Both Bradley University and West Texas A&M University have been gracious in recording many of my works for the past few years. Before that I was blessed to have Texas A&M University-Kingsville, and Delta State record for me. Also helping me this year is University of Texas-Brownsville. I am really thankful to their fine directors: Dr. David Vroman (Bradley), Don Lefevre (West Texas), Allan Clark (UT Brownsville), and Bryan Herring (formerly at TAMUK and Delta State; presently at Alice High School in Texas).
If time allows, I need to start composing music for the Texas UIL Sightreading Project.
Well until next time.
Dennis
