The 3DMEs are nice because I can dial in how much (or little) ambient sound I hear, so I can get a little more of the top end of my arco playing in Band situations, while still getting good fundamental via the DI. This looks quite promising for the future. #bassist #doublebass #hearingprotection #militaryband #windband #stringbass #bassguitar 3/3

I’ve not had this productive a day in the practice room in a long time. I got the nod to play the 2nd Bassoon part in Gounod’s Petite Symphonie on double bass and it’s at once kicking my ass and validating. Nothing like reading and playing up the octave, and in tenor clef no less. #doublebass #chambermusic #windband #militaryband

I'm appreciating the free wifi on this aircraft, as well as the fact that I'm kinda mashed into my seat and still able to work without contorting my body. Just did a fun arrangement of some music for brass quintet and woodwind quintet for funsies, now going to turn my attention to this big band thing I’ve been meaning to do.

The more typical performance style of this piece is by military marching bands (Mehter band). Heck, I'm sure I saw one of these bands play it when I was in Istanbul a decade ago.

Had my first success with the PDF import feature of #musescore today. I imported a part that I wanted transposed, and it got about 80% of the work done for me on the first pass. Considering I’d tried it previously and it failed horribly, this is a massive step forward. #windband #militaryband #composer #arranger

Off to Canadian Forces Base Borden to instruct #windband conducting with/for my colleagues. I’m excited for the opportunity to dig in for a month on this topic! #rcn #militaryband
