Rachmaninov!

Had the most amazing evening Saturday. Went with my daughter Christa, her boyfriend Taylor, and my wife Nina to see Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No. 3 in D minor at the Ohio Theatre. It was amazing!!! That is some of the most beautiful music I have ever heard...it's amazing being over 40 minutes long! But so special was spending time with Christa which doesn't happen as much as I'd like anymore. She has a very busy schedule at Grove City and anytime I get to spend I cherish. Kids grow up so fast....

Been working on two Christmas choir pieces for Liberty Church. Christmas is right around the corner - this is the busiest season for me but I'm determined this year to enjoy it and not let the special moments get away from me. Christ's birth is the reason and I am committed this year to remind myself daily of that truth...
