USA Double Reed Day 2026 was a success! So very thankful to Jeff Keesecker for making the trip from Tallahassee to play in the opening recital and work with our bassoon participants! I know that they learned so much from him and enjoyed his teaching, and it was an honor to have the opportunity to play chamber music with one of my former FSU professors!
Also very thankful to Alexandra Harvey our piano graduate assistant, for her beautiful playing this morning!
And so proud of my wonderful students, .a817 and .oboe for their beautiful playing as well! It was fun to play the Beethoven Trio together!
It was also great to have with us for the day!
And I enjoyed having the opportunity to meet and work with so many enthusiastic double reed students!
Many thanks to the USA Double Reed students, our events coordinator Keith Bohnet, and .casperson for all of their help throughout the day!!
