Here's what happened in November:
Teaching is still plugging along. I produced a recording
session for my class at THE BRIDGES, a rather new, and excellent,
medium size recording stage in Glendale. I've added a few new private
composition students. Our son, Steven, has written a musical and
I got to do the lead sheets for all the music. I spent several days
working on college application materials for both boys. Still
have 2-3 city events to attend to each week. On the 20th I produced
another scoring session, this time at the Spielberg Stage at USC.
