I purchased "Count Rockula" last year and my kids played it for the Fall Concert. They loved it. It was well received by the audience.
I am looking to purchase two of your pieces this year - Ten Masters in Two minutes - I like it ( it is well written) and seamless as it goes from one song into the next. (plus the kids get exposed to a little taste of the great composers in the beginning of their musical career). I also am going to purchase Casey's Last Run - it sounds like "Great Locomotive Chase" - by Robert W. Smith ( love this piece for my older more experienced bands) - but Casey's last run is much shorter and therefore more playable for the younger bands.Endurance is a factor for my younger bands.
Tim,
great to meet you at Midwest. Looking forward to jumping into "Traffic Jam" after the break. Thanks for the great musc. Wishing you the best for the holiday season.

Hey Tim just started playing Traffic Jam with my 6th graders. They're loving it! Hope all is well.
Tim,
Performed your Family Fugue once again this year and it NEVER fails! Big crowd favorite with incredible content for both performer and listener. For those that are not familiar with a grade 1 operetta for band, check out this amazing piece.
Hello!!
I haven't been to Chicago since October, when I did my show 6 times in 7 days! I also haven't been to the Midwest Clinic since I was in high school. I can't get away in December!! Thanks for the Christmas card!

Tim,
Thanks for your kind words. Love your music. Have programed "Battle of the Samurai" and "Traffic Jam" this year. Can't wait to start working with the kids on them. Hope your year is going well.
