Doctoral Auditions Update

Wisconsin is in the books -- harrowing driving in Matt's boxy little Volvo in brutal winter weather to stay with friends on Iowa and then on to Madison.  Matt has spoken little about the audition, as is his way, and is now waiting for communication from his contact there.

He has digitally submitted audition materials to OSU, and continues to have difficulty connecting with his contact there due to meager communication and scheduling conflicts.

He left from Detroit this morning for a whirlwind audition circuit that will include University of Arizona at Tucson and University of Washington at Seattle.  Please send your good thoughts and lots of wishes for clear skies and steady nerves throughout.  It was tough saying "See ya later" this morning, and Matt would stand for no photos -- this is the only one I have to share.

On his way...
