🥁 What an incredible residency with Josh Jones!

We had an amazing time learning, listening, and making music with Josh throughout his visit at Missouri State University. From working with our Orchestra to his inspiring recital and masterclass, Josh shared so much knowledge, experience, and musical insight with our students.

Thank you, Josh, for inspiring our students and reminding us all why we love making music! 🎶

We are so grateful for this wonderful experience and hope to see you again soon!

Also, thank you Missouri State Reynolds College of Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities and Missouri State University Music Department for the support to let us have the opportunity to learn and explore from the best! Go Bear!

Studio Class today was extra special! Our senior students, Lily and Lyndon, gave a presentation sharing some real tips and advice with the studio. 🥁🎶

One of my favorite ideas from their presentation was “The Secret 3rd Wolf.” The three wolves represent the three important sides of every music student: a student, a musician, and a human being. 🐺🐺🐺 It’s easy to focus on being a good student and musician, but we also need to remember the third wolf—to take care of ourselves and enjoy life outside of school and music. ❤️

We thought this was such an important message to share with our younger students, especially at the beginning of the semester. College can get busy quickly, but finding a healthy balance is an important part of becoming both a better musician and a happier person!

Thank you, Lily and Lyndon, for sharing your experiences and wisdom with the studio! 💛🐺
