Drawing to a Close

Yes, Summer is beginning to end for me. I've taken all of my final exams save one which I will take tomorrow. After that, I'm just working MWF for the next two weeks and I will probably take off a day or so from work just to relax some before the Fall semester begins.

I finalized my Fall schedule yesterday. I'm taking 18 hours this semester as opposed to the original 20 hours I was going to take. Here is a rundown of my classes I'm taking:

MU 321 - Music Theory III - Ms. Dale Reynolds
MU 324 - Aural Skills III - Ms. Dale Reynolds
MU 329 - Conducting I - Dr. Jeff Reynolds
MU 471 - Music History and Literature to 1750 - Dr. Howard Irving
MUP 001 - Performance Attendance - Dr. Gene Fambrough
MUP 124 - Class Piano - Ms. Rosalind Rust
MUP 125 - Piano Proficiency - Ms. Rosalind Rust
MUP 132 - Class Woodwinds - Dr. Denise Gainey
MUP 136 - Class Percussion - Dr. Gene Fambrough
MUP 220/220L - Concert Choir - Dr. Philip Copeland
MUP 240 - Private Lessons: Voice - Dr. Kristine Hurst-Wajszczuk
MUP 320 - Chamber Singers - Dr. Philip Copeland
MUP 420 - Opera Workshop - Dr. Kristine Hurst-Wajszczuk

So as you can see, my schedule is full this semester. Not to mention, in September I am traveling to Washington D.C. with my family for my grandmother's acceptance of the National Endowment of the Arts Lifetime Heritage Fellowship, traveling to Cincinnatti in October with the UAB Concert Choir to sing at the National Collegiate Choral Organization Conference, and travel to Joe Wheeler State Park in Langston, AL for Thanksgiving break with my family.

Overall, I am looking forward to what the fall brings: great music and reconnection with great friends.

Until next time,

Brian
