Very sad to hear about the passing of Vic Firth. I am indebted to him and his company for I am where I am today in large part for his vision, both as a student at New England Conservatory and a user of his percussion products, from my very first year of playing music 20 years ago.

My thoughts go out to the Vic Firth team (the employees and the drumming community at large) and the Firth family. Truly a colossal loss for the music world. Rest in peace, Mr. Firth.

Some good things happening at KHS

Been busy designing the 2015 marching show for Enrico Fermi High School. This will be the last show in the school's history as it will be consolidated with the other high school in Enfield, CT next year.

This show will feature some fan and director favorites from the past 16 years. The opener has a combination of two productions from the school's 2000 production, a percussion feature, and TWO tuba features!

My most requested arrangement.
