Dear Bass Lover,
I am excited to announce the 5th Annual Bass Day at the Glenn Korff School of Music, University of Nebraska - Lincoln. The event will take place in the Westbrook Music Building on the main campus on Saturday, October 17th from 10 AM - 4 PM, allowing for those who are traveling some distance to attend. The event is free and open to the public and lunch will be provided for participants. The day will feature an introduction to innovative bass techniques for players at all levels including variations on Simandl as well as new techniques by George Vance and François Rabbath, an orchestral excerpt session with Dr. Tyler White, a solo masterclass (please let me know if you would like to play), a Big Bass Jam with KC Bass Workshop Director Johnny Hamil, and more.
I look forward to hearing from you and welcoming you and your students to come and share in a terrific bass experience. Kindly pass the word to any and all bassists.
