Hello? is anyone there?

Thus begins my new project.  I hope that by putting this in a blog format there will be more comments and sharing of ideas/tips/hints, etc.  If you are a fellow trombonist say HI!!!! :)
I recently graduated from Lawrence University in Appleton, WI.  I graduated with a Bachelor of Music in Trombone Performance after studying with the amazing and wonderful Nick Keelan.  I spent one year of my undergraduate at Colorado State University studying with the also wonderful Greg Harper.  I spent the summer not practicing as much as I should and I am now back in Colorado and, as of yet, jobless.  I want to practice a lot more than I have been so I came up with the idea to post a video a week to keep me motivated and working, the natural choice was Bordogni/Rochut etudes because there are so many of them.  I may post other projects (like duets and maybe solos....) as well.
I have ideas about going to grad school in the future but I feel I will be best served with some time away from school right now, so here we go, the grand adventure begins!
