I'm working on just staying in shape over the summer. I'm on a sabbatical from church orchestra, and brass band picks up again in August. In the meantime, our Civil War brass group is recording a new CD - our 2007 project, and our 4th CD. Most of my practice will be on cornet because of this, and I'll be working some on precision, tone, and endurance, mostly through exercises from Arban's.
My main goal is to be as least as good this fall as I was this spring.
