It's so easy for me to get caught in the day to day challenges of it ALL, and not to really take stock of all of the amazing people and projects that are part of my life.

In our final fall meeting with the musicians of the NC State/Raleigh Civic Symphony & Chamber Orchestra, it hit me, out of the blue.

After months of hard work on amazing music by @lisabielawa and @tiftmerritt surrounded by musicians who were grateful to be given the opportunity to create and express themselves during challenging times, I felt truly privileged to be a part of the "project" of being an artist: collaborating with two of my musical heroes, a part of something much larger than myself, able to create the framework and possibility for beautiful things to be brought into the world.

Thank you to Lisa, Tift and all the incredible musicians and human beings who have courageously made extraordinary acts of creativity and beauty together over these last months. I am grateful.

What an INCREDIBLE night and an incredible four we

What an INCREDIBLE night and an incredible four weeks of @next_fest 2020!

Special thanks to @kellyhtviolin @rthompsonmusic @lisabielawa @derek.bermel and @s.amawray for making the evening's celebration one to remember.
