lazy day

i'm supposed to be working.... i have a picture order that needs to be at the lab.. yesterday. its wasn't a great job.. i was just hired to shoot this even for a local music event (a convention).. so the shots are candids, and less than exciting.

the sun is shining and i'd rather be outside getting dirty in my garden..

i was just asked to play at least 2 more times this summer at Christ Church Cranbrook. yay! its a very prestigious venue... one of the oldest cathedrals in our area.

i agreed to play.. (of course) but also suggested that instead of just hearing me as a soloist.. that they might enjoy a chamber group.. duet or trio.. or maybe even a quartet.

the music director was excited by that idea.. even offered to pay us each separately instead of my usual fee being split among a group.

i called my friend Jill (another flute player/teacher) and she suggested doing a trio using 2 flutes, and a bass flute. (jill plays bass flute as well) we'll have to get together a few mornings in the next couple of weeks to work out some repertoire.

just when i thought my performing schedule was coming to an end for the summer.. i got this :) and this is really cool. i mean i'm ready for a break from my normal rehearsal schedule.. but this is totally different. 3 of us (who really enjoy each other's company) actually making a little money together... i could get used to this :P

ok.. back to my picture order, then out to the garden to play in the dirt :D
