T.M.E.A. 2010 (Pre-Show)

Once again it is time for all of the food, fun, debauchery, and oh yeah… music, that comes with the Texas Music Educator’s Association Convention & Clinic.  This is almost a mini-vacation for lots of band directors and college students (music majors).  They get a few days off to mingle, have fun, see old friends, and knock back some drinks.  To them I say… that’s every day for me!!  TMEA, Midwest, PASIC, TBA… why, these are the times I actually go somewhere to WORK!!  :-)

While I wish I could say I was having a piece, or pieces, performed this week (like some people!), or that I am having a booth there (like Midwest), I do have some exciting news that is a first for my music:

RBC Music will be showing/selling my music!!!

While this may not seem like a big deal to some, to a self-publishing composer who is trying to get his music out to the masses, to have one of, if not THE, largest distributor of sheet music is a HUGE deal.  Yes… my percussion music is published through Drop 6 and has been, and continues to be performed .  And yes, my marching band shows do rather well.  But like an actor wanting to direct; a singer wanting to act; an NBA star wanting to rap… I want my band music played!!!!  :-)

So if you’re looking for some new wind band music, stop by the (massive) RBC Music booth at TMEA and just look for my music.  They’re actually giving me my own section to showcase my music!!

Hope to see you there!

    Well… I will be checking in from time to time, yes. And maybe I will put my coat at somebody else’s booth this time! :-)
