It’s A Choral Week.

Posted in: General- Jun 22, 2008 1 Comment

This week I am helping with a choral camp at UL-Monroe. I am going to be starting my masters in Choral Conducting there in the fall of this year, Lord willing. It is going to give me a chance to visit and work with the department, my fellow grad students, and get a taste for what it will be like. 

Also, I am preparing little by little, for my choir/theory/sight-singing class at Geneva Academy. I’ll only be part time there as I will be full time at the church. It is going to be a diverse choir that will range in age and meet 3 days a week. It is a challenge that I am greatly looking forward to.
Also, I am starting to get clients for my new piano tuning business, Richey Piano Service. That is exciting and a bit humbling.

24

Posted in: General- Jun 21, 2008 No Comments

How many of you thought that this blog was going to be about the Fox TV Show, “24″? Well, I am sorry to disappoint you but 24 is not a reference to the TV show but rather to my age as of today.

Yes, today is my 24th birthday. I get to share it with family in a nice enjoyable weekend at our new home in Monroe, Louisiana. 
Five Other Notable People Who Share June 21st as their Birthday too:
  • Martha Washington – wife of Pres. George Washington
  • Prince William – oldest son of Prince Charles
  • Brandon Flowers – The Killers’ vocalist & keyboardist
  • Benazir Bhutto – former Prime Minister of Pakistan who was recently assassinated.
  • Conrad L. Hall – cinematographer of films like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, American Beauty, & Road to Perdition
There are some more out there but these are the ones that stood out to me.

I am still working towards levels of certification. I now am starting to take on a small load of clients so that I can build my experience. Be sure to check out my website and send me an email if you need your piano tuned.

N.T. Wright on the "Colbert Report"

Posted in: General- Jun 20, 2008 No Comments

Bishop N.T. Wright appeared on the Colbert Report last evening to discuss his newest book, Surprised By Hope: Rethinking Heaven, the Resurrection, and the Mission of the Church. It was a brief and typical interview of Colbert, but was an enjoyable watch. This is the same Bishop that came to Monroe to our Auburn Avenue Pastors Conference and spoke in 2005.
