The 10th Annual Mark Wood Rock Orchestra Music Festival. Empowering musicians of all ages to think and act creatively in today's world.
My music friends/family picked a very select group of string players to play with them in their faculty concert and I am one of them! We are playing "Comfortably Numb" by Pink Floyd and "Forty Six and Two" by Tool. The arrangements are wonderful, and were written by Chuck and David. The Tool song is one of the most difficult things I've ever learned. Chuck Bontrager is concertmaster for Hamilton Chicago and David Wallace is a composer and string faculty chair at Berklee. Some of the other people in the string section are on the faculty here at MWROC and are also very prominent electric strings players and heroes of mine. This is the biggest honor ever! I'm looking forward to this concert very much!
