Ramping up for the last week with SōPercussion

Been busy, learning and doing multiple public performances, including some premier performances of some new works.  This week ramps up to the final performance of some works by Steve Reich, and includes a day with him to prep for the performance.  The photo below is of the hard-working percussionists setting up for a gig... sweet work, if you can get it :)


You can see all the photos that Matt has taken (not a ton) by visiting his Instagram  profile.

His time in Vermont is nearly at an end...

But here's a personal message and a photo for you about Matt's journey so far:

"I can't thank the people who helped me get to Vermont enough,  without the contribution of patrons this would never have been possible.  Also, I can't thank Stuart and Sylvia Smith enough for their endless knowledge and hospitality.  One of the greatest weeks, if not THE greatest, of my life."

On his way....

... to spend 5 days with Stuart Saunders Smith and then 10 days with SōPercussion with Steve Reich and others at Princeton.  Should arrive at his hotel in Vermont some time this afternoon.  Looking forward to sharing updates about his experiences as they become available.
