Race Across America

Last year I went on one of the craziest adventures of my life. I was on a crew for a non-stop bike race across America. And I just agreed to do it again.


                                                           
From June 16th to June 22nd, I will be on the crew for a bike race across America as a member of Team Donate Life , a non-profit organization that raises money and awareness for organ and tissue donation and transplants. By joining others and contributing to team donate life you can help give hope to thousands by raising money and awareness for organ/tissue donation and transplants, and feel good about it all. Every little bit helps.

The Race Across America begins in Oceanside, CA and will end 6 days and 3,005 miles later in Annapolis, MD.  Our relay team will ride 24 hours a day, racing from the Pacific Ocean, through the Mohave Desert, climbing 3 mountain ranges (including the Colorado Rockies) totaling over 118,000 vertical feet, traversing the Great Plains, with all its wind and rain, riding throughout the day and night on our way to the Atlantic Ocean until finally, worn out yet victorious, we’ll celebrate with actual organ donors and recipients, as we cross the finish line, to support the miracles associated with organ donation~ LIFE!

Your tax deductible donation of any amount can either be made by check to “Team Donate Life” mailed to the address below, or you may go directly to our fundraising page here:http://teamdonatelife.com/riders.asp?ifid=198 to donate online.  Please note on your donation who you are supporting. We are committed to reaching our goal by June 16th.  



Event: RAAM
Event Date: 6/16/2012
Fundraising Goal: $1,500.00
Current : $0.00

Donate Now


This is my 2nd year being associated with Team Donate Life and you can call me a believer. There is no more important cause in my book than life and Team Donate Life demonstrates that on many levels. Most importantly organ donation. I remember as a teenager coming up on a car accident where they were flying someone out. Word quickly got out that the person being transported had already died but was an organ donor and they were racing to get his organs to someone in need. That moment I decided that is what I wanted to do and have registered as an organ donor ever since. Join me in helping me reach my goal of $1,500 toward this cause, every little bit helps. 

Thank you for your support,

Music Advocacy Done A Little Differently

Recently I have felt the need to do something more at my concerts as far as music advocacy is concerned. I hate to just hit my audience over the head with it as I am not sure how effective that is, so I had an idea for this years Christmas Concert. I interviewed each of my music students (only those who wanted to) and then I put edited them all together into a video that I played on a big screen while parents were coming in before the concert ever started.

The parents really seemed to love seeing their kids via this medium and the kids loved being on the big screen. I did this for both my Junior and Senior High Schools. I think if I did it again I would make the videos shorter and maybe sneak in a few slides with music advocacy stats on them.

Class Facebook Page (Update)

Image via CrunchBase

A year ago I wrote a post about creating a Class Facebook Page. After a few tweaks I think I found the Facebook setup that works for me.

I have set up a general Facebook Page for all the choirs that anyone can like and follow for general announcements. Also a good way for alumni to stay connected and a means for free performance advertisement.

Where the real success has been is with Private Group Pages for  my individual performance groups. I have found through these private groups I get the protection from out siders posting stuff I don't approve of and also I get to communicate directly with just my ensembles outside of school time. Granted not all of my students have a Facebook but I would say at least 90% do and have all accepted an invitation to be a part of this group.

You can set up your own groups here: https://www.facebook.com/about/groups/

Guitar player thwarts plane hijacking

Can you believe that the most unlikely of heroes actually saved that day? I should add this guy to my ongoing series of personal guitar heroes. So who is the mystery man? Well, he's not that big of a mystery!


Chris Llewellyn who is the guitarist for the hip hop artist Asher Roth was on a plane Wednesday that was headed for Los Angeles, when a bit of a ruckus broke out. Apparently a very disgruntled man had all he could take, and shoved a stewardess to the ground. It didn't stop their, as the man claimed to have a bomb, and rushed to the exit door, making an attempt to open it in mid flight. Llewellyn heard the commotion, saw what was going on, and acted.

The 26 year old guitar player tackled the disturbed Delta passenger, and with the help of several other passengers, restrained the man until the plane could safely land. Soon after the man was taken into custody, and no bomb was found on the plane, but thanks to the efforts of Chris and other passengers aboard the Delta plane, any other troubles were quickly avoided. However, the man was not restrained in a perfect scenario. Chris told the Los Angeles Times that everyone was struggling to keep the man pinned, because he was acting insane.

Talk about a hero!

Acerca de Concerto di Bravura por Stephen Street

traducido por Angel Chavez Una de las partes más gratificantes de la creación de esta edición de Urtext ha sido descubrir una nueva pieza.
