While recording my audition materials for Graduate School Auditions, I met with Josh Quillen (So Percussion, NYU) to talk about some of my videos. We discussed the timing of Magic Flute (as well as some of my other pieces). He suggested I put on a backing track, so here is my new and improved version of Magic Flute.

Ceci N'est Pas Un Jouet by Gene Koshinski is a piece that I have had sitting in my stack of random pieces of music for a couple of years now, but I've never played it. The only other person that I knew of that had a hand-crank music box was Kendall Rhymer, so we sat down the other day and played through it. I am obsessed with the sounds that we created and this wonderful piece! Make sure to go check out Quey Percussion's original version and the dance that goes with the piece!!

Vous avez du Feu?Quarantine hit everyone differently and when my junior recital was cancelled I decided that I still wanted to be creative. The ladies of the percussion studio and I were supposed to perform Vous avez du Feu? by Emmanuel Séjourné. Since the piece is very accessible we moved online. I immediately forgot about it in all the chaos but I finally finished it. May I present four of the six Womxn of the WCU Percussion Studio performing Vous avez du feu? Enjoy!
