My 14yo daughter, Georgia, plays clarinet in the schools wind orchestra and this week they got a special guest conductor to work with (for 6 days).
Dr Mike Fansler is the head of music at the University Western Illinois and comes with a really big reputation for teaching youth bands and orchestras.
He's sure made a difference to the Chatswood High School Wind Orchestra!
We raise the money to get him here for a week or two every other year.
Really amazing what this guy can facilitate in just a few days.
With a lot of hard work and a little luck, Dr Mike may have helped the wind orchestra qualify for next year's high school band competition at Carnegie Hall.
Hopefully see you there in April ;-)
Here's a few seconds of Granger.
