Where did 2015 go?

11/16/2015

 
​It's a little early to be doing a 2015 retrospective, but I just realized it's been almost a year since my last post, so I wanted to let everybody know I'm still here, just really busy. (32 weddings so far this year, 3 more still to go. Plus two Messiahs, a benefit concert, Christmas Eve, New Years Eve, and a few others.) I'll do a full year-end wrap-up once the year is actually over and I'm sure nothing else will be added, but in the meantime, here are some of the more interesting places I've played (so far).

Heather and Brian, Waller Wedding 10/18/14
2015 is shaping up to be a busy one. It's only January 21st, and I've already got 15 weddings booked (plus 1 for 2016). Saturdays are going fast, so don't delay! Act now! Supplies, aren't necessarily running out, just filling up. (apologies to Smash Mouth) 

I'm also excited to announce that I'll be running an additional ad in the bridal issue of HerLife Magazine. Here's a preview of what will go in the print and digital editions. (HUGE thanks to the HerLife design team for putting this together!)

December already?

12/4/2014

The snow has started to fall up here, but the snow tires are on my little car, so I guess that means I'm ready for another busy winter in the Adirondacks. Which is good, because December is going to be crazy, even by December standards. Here's my gig lineup, if you're curious. 

  • 12/4 - Plattsburgh Sinfonia concert
  • 12/5 - Christmas in Ticonderoga downtown holiday fest
  • 12/7 - Festival of Trees (Ticonderoga)
  • 12/9 - After Business Mixer (Ticonderoga)
  • 12/12 - Cello Voce in Malone (Foothills Arts Society)
  • 12/13 - Mountain Lake PBS gala dinner (Lake Placid)
  • 12/14 - Tri-Lakes Messiah (Lake Placid this year)
  • 12/19 - Cello Voce in Lake George (Reserve tickets here!)
  • 12/24 - Christmas Eve services at St. Peter's UMC, Ocean City NJ
  • 12/31 - Cello Voce, Saranac Lake First Night (More info here)


On top of that is my usual teaching lineup, plus a few rehearsals and a big secret meeting which I will discuss at a later point, provided all goes well.

I'm super excited to officially announce Cello Voce's 2014 Greater Adirondack Tour! We have 5 public concerts lined up over the next two months (as well as a handful of private functions) so we're looking forward to playing some great music for great audiences all over the park!

Technical Difficulties

10/9/2014

I just noticed that somehow my original 'Home' page disappeared and got replaced by my 'Weddings' page. This is a problem, because my Knot ad links directly to TAC/weddings.html, which no longer existed for some reason. This meant that if you clicked the link from my storefront, instead of getting a screenful of awesome wedding info, you got an ugly 404 Not Found error. I don't know how long it had been this way, and I apologize to all my Knot visitors who tried to stop by and thought I had a busted website. It is now fixed, and I'm in the process of rewriting the home page. It will be bigger and better than ever, of course. (well, different, at least)

August and part of September

Once again I have fallen way behind on my blogging.  Here's another gallery overview with musical highlights of the past month and a half.  Not pictured - the ~two dozen opera services I played, several weddings, another recording gig, the solo concert I gave in a restored one-room schoolhouse, and the two weeks I taught at a music camp.
Riding the ski lift with my cello to a wedding at the top of the Windham Mountain Ski Resort.
Wedding at the top of the Windham Mountain Ski hill. It was cold. This was taken right before it got really cold.
The view coming back down the mountain. You don't get to ride a ski lift this direction very often. It was pretty fun!
Alice Hyde Medical's Silver and Black Gala at Titus Mountain in Malone, NY. I played right in the center of the room. It was fun.
The one opera picture I managed to take - setting up for the private Gianni Schicci performance in a fabulous barn in VT.
A recording gig at a studio in Albany. (ignore the crooked bow)
Wedding at the Burlington Boathouse, looking out over Lake Champlain
My studio for the two weeks I taught at a music camp. It was nice having an office.
A sign from the MostArts festival. I was so busy I only managed to take a handful of pictures of weird things, like this.
ps, watch this space for exciting news about a duo concert tour I'm giving in November/December with my friend Holly! Details are still being finalized, but should be finished soon!

I am fortunate enough to be playing for the MostArts Festival in Alfred, NY beginning next week.  It should be a lot of fun!  Anybody in western NY should come by, see a concert or two or 6 and say hi!  http://mostarts.alfred.edu/

In a break from my usual scene, I'll also be teaching at the Cshey summer music camp in Houghton, NY for two weeks.  Somewhere in there I also have to learn two operas for August's Hubbard Hall Opera Theater performances, so maybe it's not so unusual after all.  So much for having a relaxing summer....  Sorry Jolene!
