Bright sun, gentle breeze, coats and boots be gone!  I&#8217;m definitely a tropical type: I adore beautiful, warm weather.  Well, who doesn&#8217;t, really?<\/p>\n<p>April was a great month for me.  I was the guest artist and composer for the Fisk University Jazz Ensemble Spring Concert.  On the program were 3 of my works, 2 of which received their debut.  It was an exciting day, despite it being Tax Day : ><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve finally decided that I need to take steps towards completing my own project.  I&#8217;ve procrastinated for years, with one &#8220;valid&#8221; reason after the next.  No more. I&#8217;ll be keeping up with my journey here on my blog, so check in when you can!<\/p>\n<p>I have several great performances coming up.
